A tree in Kohaku's pasture fell over in last night's storm,
so we had to remove it in a hurry.
But he was watching over us so lovingly that it made the work go smoothly 😂

A horse peeks its head out from a stable window, gazing this way. Its fluffy mane sways in the wind. This heartwarming sight has soothed many people, with comments like, "Too cute!" and "It's like he's cheering us on!"

Candy Farm, a Sanctuary for Retired Horses

The post was made by Ms. Ota, who takes in retired thoroughbreds from breeding farms and cares for them at her retirement ranch, Candy Farm. The horse in the photo is Kohaku, a pony who lives at the ranch. Currently, 13 horses of various breeds live together in harmony.

A shot of Kohaku, who Ms. Ota says is "actually quite a handsome fellow."

The X posts offer a glimpse into the daily lives of the horses living freely at the ranch.
