PoniesPonies are not hard to find in the New Forest. They hang
around the roads, especially in hot weather so drive with care and
don't do anything to attract them to your vehicle.
The foals are born in spring and grow very quickly, by summer they have
lost some of their charm but are stiill fun to watch. Don't try to
approach too close - they are semi wild and there have been incidents
where injuries have been caused - just enjoy from a distance.
In the Autumn the drifts take place when the ponies and foals are rounded up and branded - a great spectacle.
