Do alpacas smile when they are happy? Well, here is Pippi greeting me. I think it's obvious, don't you?
Alpacas are as good as a hunting dog. Chico and Champ, full brothers, saw something in the back yard of our neighbor. I went over to see what had captured their attention and saw a
HUGE possum. Ick, I hate those things. Give me the creeps.
This is Sancho, teething on the wire fence. If you look closely, you can see that the alpaca does not have front teeth on top. They have a hard pallet, which they like to massage on cold things. Sancho does this every morning. He stays in the barn with me each morning, while all the other boys are outside. He is waiting for me to spray him with the hose. (Or better yet, bring him a girlfriend).
The weather has been glorious here the past couple of weeks. The frogs are coming out of hibernation, as are the possums. And here are the mountains, showing off in all their splendor. These are the Coastal Range in Canada, which is just 5 miles from us as the crow flies.
We let the girls into a new field the other morning, and I always like to watch them. The whistle I use to call them is the same one my Mom woke me up to each morning as a child.

So cute!! I love the way they look in every direction as they come out!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing the ones come running from the back. I never get enough of seeing these pretty critters.....even though I can't really call the teething photo "pretty".....LOL
ReplyDeleteI just love your alpacas! It so reminds me of our trip to Peru. They are just fascinating animals.
