Spotted Zebra

Sarabande, Bach

I spotted what looked like a zebra near Casa Loma.

A day after playing at the wonderful city-owned, Kiwanis Club-operated Horse Stables, it occurs to me that there aren’t usually horses inhabiting the place. This would be too bad for the horses, really, considering the luxurious, historic architectural setting and spacious stalls!

Perhaps the two magnificent creatures who were happily munching their hay (hey, it was a lunch break already!) in the dim, suffused, afternoon light - maybe they were just there for the day like everyone else milling around the place, ’stand-in’ extras for the movie shoot that was set up on location.

But wait: this can’t be a spotted zebra - zebra’s are striped!
