Wild ponies are herded into the Assateague Channel during a rain storm for their annual swim from Assateague Island to Chincoteague in Chincoteague, Va., July 24, 2013.

Once a year, the wild ponies are rounded up on the national wildlife refuge to be auctioned off by the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company.

I was lucky enough to see this myself. It was an amazing and beautiful sight. You can view the pictures here.
