January 1 is the traditional time for foaling season in for Thoroughbred breeders. As baby horses emerge throughout the spring, we’ll be featuring some of the cutest and most notable newborns we see featured on Twitter. Come back every Sunday to start your week off right!
This little one is clearly enjoying the winter weather – we’re glad someone still likes it!
