Painters use footage like this to create amazing paintings that can be seen in many homes around the world. The power of the animals as they traverse the expanse of water between small islands where they graze is astonishing. Someone in the helicopter exclaims, “It’s like a movie.”
Many commenters are protesting that the helicopter is flying too close and may spook the animals. Others are just enjoying the opportunity to see something rare. The area seems to be flush with small islands. There is plenty of lush green grass for the horses to graze on.
Not knowing where this is, it is difficult to say if this is a common occurrence. Many people attend the annual crossing of the Chincoteague ponies in Maryland. The helicopter circled to get a better look at the horses, who wasted no time beginning to graze after arriving at their destination.

There are wild horse herds near Assateague and Chincoteague Islands in Virginia and Maryland. The ponies on Chincoteague are slightly smaller than horses, but indistinguishable from this view. Other wild herds are located near Shackleford Banks, in North Carolina, which has similar terrain. Helicopter tours to view wild horses are available in Nova Scotia and near Assateague.
The original poster never mentioned a location, and since she is an adventurer, it could be almost anywhere.
