Iceland is infamous for its friendly fuzzy horses. This rust and creamy cutie sauntered up for a little nuzzle in the winter wind. This photo captures the rich colors and textures and I believe even the gentle nature of this gorgeous horse.

There is only one breed of horse in Iceland brought to the island over 1000 years ago and is woven into the very fabric of Icelandic culture. The Icelandic horse is good natured and resilient to the harsh conditions from volcanic eruptions to icy cold winters.
