flickering its ears Explanation: another version is "flicking", I guess it's a common term -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 mins (2022-09-06 09:23:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- just in case: my flickering came up independently of the flickering in the discussion -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 33 mins (2022-09-06 09:38:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- btw, it could be more appropriate to write "flickering his ears" in this case |

Reference: Horse's ear positions/movements Reference information: Some interesting info here: https://horseracingsense.com/what-does-horses-ears-tell-you-... I note the use of "pricked" rather than "pricked up". That sounds like the lingo they use (in horseriding/horseracing circles). |
