Llamas must be a tolerant bunch. The ones near our house share their field with a small horse (and a donkey?).

[stoneylonesome]

I agree, the woman that owns this small farm has some of the strangest mix of animals I've ever seen, there are also sheep a couple of donkeys a few farm geese and ducks and god knows what else. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice looking yard. :)

I had a couple curious llamas check me out last week when I was at the old Mark Twain Cabin on Jackass Hill just south of Angels Camp.

Nice one Lonnie, Ya Llamas are something else, there so curious that they'll stop everything and wonder over to you to see what's up. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[stoneylonesome]

Lonnie; You reminded me of a shot I took a couple of years ago of a Llama that I thought was going to end up eating my camera. I had a tough time taking its picture cause he kept sticking his nose in the lens :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Are llamas and Alpacas the same thing?
Caption for the first one, "What do you mean they don't look like me?"

Are llamas and Alpacas the same thing?
Same genus, different species. Interestingly enough they are all members of the camel family.

[einsteinsauntie]

In Australia a few farmers have Alpacas but they're expensive, I don't think anyone has Llamas. Maybe the quality of wool makes the Alapacas a better option.

[stoneylonesome]

Thanks for the comments; Yes it's the alpacha wool that makes them to more valuable.
"What do you mean they don't look like me?"
love the caption einsteinsauntie

Seems like you have some very fiesty Llamas over there in Ireland. :lol: :lol:
The only thing one ever did to me was try and spit at me, just like a camel :lol: :lol:

I'd rather be bit then spit at Sandy :lol: :lol: :lol:

love the shot and the colour and the door of the barn also
and the overhanging tree :cool:

(and the other big fellow in the other shot):lol:

[stoneylonesome]

Thanks Marie; I love the barn color also. Shot this in RAW with very little post processing, Tweaked the EV a little and resized and a touch of USM and that was is it so what you see is pretty much true to the barns color.

When they spit ya gotta be quick. :lol: :lol: :lol:
