Lazy, Hazy, Days......of Summer !!

Zeto..having an alpaca moment..... with me !
Enjoying the company...

Babies....back with the big girls....Duke has a new look ! ... a muddy goatee !


Duke, Zeto....by the pool....Dusty dips her toes in !.....Zienna...has a roll, Zullulah....has just got up !

Dare I mention...the weather ! Today we have experienced a taste of summer ......

Yes, I know we are in mid June ! .... how long do we have to wait for the summer-time blues !

All going to plan we should be getting sheared in just over a week...so I hope that the weather is kind after the big shearing day. Usually every year after the alpacas are sheared, the weather is really cold..... I hope not !

Today, I was pottering around outside.......I took my camera out to take a couple of photos of the alpacas.....just enjoying the warmer days ..... plenty of sleeping and snoozing, the odd spat over the pool.... then more sleeping....and the odd bit of grazing in between......all in all, a very lazy day.

Sadly, not for me ! Mind you I did have a sit down in the middle of the field with the alpacas....just a little moment of contemplation....before getting on with the rest of the day....!!

My spirits...lifted...back to the chores ....

Hi Jayne, Everything looking very 'summery' with you. It's been warm but dull with us for days but we're glad as the boys are more comfortable. Like Duke's goatee! Take care. Shirley & Robbie

Lovely photos, particularly the one of Zeto - hope the weather stays good for you and looking forward to seeing photos of the alpacas without their warm coats!

Wow, you've got grass long enough to hide an alpaca!
