The foal and the ball

About three years ago my then yearling foal found an entaining way of amusing himself. He had an old ball that he had been playing with and I think he must have been getting bored with the same game with it so he came up with the idea to put the ball in his plastic feed bowl and push the whole lot around the field with the ball inside. If it came out he just kept putting it back in.
At least it kept him amused. Now he is a big Stallion and still finds the game a lot of fun, but only if the girls are not watching him.
