Who Needs Reindeer...
...when you have llamas! It felt like an early Christmas present yesterday afternoon, as I was standing at my kitchen window doing a few dishes. I saw a reddish-brown creature grazing at my fenceline and couldn't believe my eyes. Got on the phone to the neighbour, and sure enough, they've just arrived - not one but two, tame and friendly, long-lashed, foul-breathed beautiful llamas. And if you follow my blog or visit us in person, you know that llamavision goes both ways. Just now I spotted the all-brown one at the fence as I stood at my back door, and it instantly spotted me, too. And perked up its ears. I went out alone to meet them yesterday, not sure the reception I would get, but once I got close and tossed a carrot, it was mere seconds before the alpha female was eating out of my hand. (And not letting the other one have a single carrot, though it was happy with alfalfa.) I'm so thrilled, I had to share. Llamavision returns! And just in time for our guests arriving on the 29th for New Years. Yay!
