Aflaaaaaccc!! (or Animal Farm, part three)

(See Parts One and Two here.)

Exceeds Image, a 2000 chestnut overo gelding, trots around his pasture with an interesting bird, commonly seen getting into sticky situations for insurance commercials, on his side.

And now, time for a message from Amber Kostrub of Lowville, New York.

"There is a marking of a duck on his side, and he's been given the name 'Aflac' by some people," she writes about her gelding.

"He also has the marking of a Scottie dog on the other side."

Animal Farm, part two

Hi everyone! If you missed the first installment of Animal Farm, go check it out now before reading this. Otherwise, get ready for some Paints that truly take flight!

Cooss Painted Cookie might just fly away someday with the lengthy wings found on her side. This 2007 bay tobiano mare resides in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, with owner Kim Johnston.

Kim writes, "On her forehead, it looks like she has an emu or a goose head with a long neck. And on her side, she has a seagull-type bird flying with wings spread!"

Up, up and away!

This little fella might not fly away just yet, but wait until his feathered companion grows along side him before making any permanent assumptions.

"To us, this looks like a duck in flight," writes Shelly Hood of Sneads, Florida, who owns the 2008 chestnut tobiano stallion Lucky Paint By Number with Kenneth Hood.

This last guy may not be much of a flyer himself, but his buddy sure is! See if you can find who's hanging out with Skip The Obvious, a 1999 sorrel tobiano gelding.

Any ideas? Hint: The marking's friend is a flying squirrel from a TV show in the 1960s. Still no luck?

"It looks like Bullwinkle is on 'Rowdy's' right flank," writes owners Ed and Mardi Messia of Blanchard, Idaho.
