Tryggur--The New Guy
Tryggur Jarl, just a few hours after he finished his almost 3 week journey from Northern Iceland. He found something green in the pasture, but, alas, it turned out to be cactus! No cactus needles, but not edible.

Vinur came up from the back to be introduced to Tryggur and relieve Ljufur of his "entertainment" duties. The "boys" thoroughly enjoyed themselves playing Icelandic Horse games!

Tryggur is first asked to "touch" the halter. Then he is asked to put his nose in it a little, then a little more. He's ok with everything so far.

As the left hand slides up the halter, he gets a little nervous, then when he sees the strap going up by his ears, he pulls back. We start over again slowly.
