I have been waiting with baited breath to see how they were going to pull this one off.

It is a bit odd, to see the CtR statue with out any really defining features - but I am so glad to see it represented at all.
I love it, Rio is on my very short list of places to visit some day (If travel ever opens back up xP)
These horses have all been amazing.

This one and the Pyramids were the ones I am most excited for!

I hope you can go some day! I've been twice and it's absolutely beautiful. This horse is a wonderful tribute!

I believe this one may just take top position as favorite from this litter i must say! ^^

I absolutely love all the dogs and horses this month! And this cutie grew up which I have been waiting for!!
Do you guys think it could possibly be rare?

This litter has been such a treat, the colour themes for each outcome really served to make the subjects pop. The long horse canvas seems perfectly suited for this kind of thing as well. I love these so much too (:

I ended up with three of them so I highly doubt it. It might be uncommon though.

I agree, this one is very pretty! I loooove the eyes so much.

I’m a bit late to the discussion. Does anyone know what the draft horses are based on? I’m thinking owls or some other bird but I’m not sure

I don't know if the artist has confirmed anything, but they do look like some kind of bird, maybe quail?

They're all based on species of finch (with some artistic liberties of course! c; )
The blue dots on the foal's mouth refer to the feeding beads some species possess when chicks!
The finch species are: Society finch, shaft tail finch, European goldfinch, and owl finch!

Very interesting to see finches depicted on draft horses!

For the species, are they In this order? I had some trouble even after googling them D:


And for the macaws, can someone confirm if I've compiled all the species correctly based on previous posts?



Hyacinth - Blue and Gold - Blue Throated - Spix's - unknown (possibly Lutino Blue and Gold?)

That is correct!

the yellow macaw has albinism,it doesn't make them white but yellow/gold
