Wild horses, a cattle egret, and deer

I thought you guys might enjoy seeing this.  I came around a corner Saturday morning at Sweetwater Wetlands Park in Gainesville and to my complete surprise this is what I saw.  (This image is unprocessed except for some rotation.)  The horses in the picture are looking at a stallion, and he wanted them to come with him, so a minute after this they all started running the direction they're facing, so the deer all ran into the woods and the Cattle Egret (confused between horses and cows?) flew off a little distance.  The horses are wild horses that are descendants of horses brought by the Spaniards to Florida.  They live on Payne's Prairie, the area of which is 32.81 square miles, completely on their own.  One of them in this picture is a colt with beautiful, thick, wild fur.

Thanks so! the image and description are day brighteners.
