Water Cooler

Ever wonder if the alpacas gather around the water cooler (trough) like humans? Do they exchange gossip or rumors or use the place to assert their pecking order? Funny, maybe I overthink things and they just use it for plain old water. Love hanging out with the herd on warm days (I didn’t say lazy warm days) and enjoy particularly how they drink at the trough. Some sip, some dip their mouth over and over again – making me wonder if they actually get anything in their mouth or it they are bobbing for invisible apples. It’s cute, either way – wouldn’t you agree?

Sure nice to see some pregnant alpacas - next year's show string in the making!

Many thanks to Janis, Wholey Cow Production for some of these great photos!
