Two alpacas seem to be enjoying a private joke.

@Roberta,
I love all animals, especially horses and dogs, but haven't ridden for years, so dogs now take centre stage! As a small child I had a German Shepherd, then a Golden Retriever when I was a teenager, and Labrador Retrievers since I was married. Never had a spaniel, although I know several. Love cats too, but our current Lab isn't a great fan!

@Region Philbis,
I now wish I had the cameras I have now (30x zoom lens) when I went on the African safari back in 2000 when I visited Tanzania and Kenya where we were able to see leopards sitting in trees from some distance from our vehicles.

@vonny,
Hey, reg. Yes, I'm a PC fan. And this one is a doozy. Thanks, kid.

Great elephant pic, vonny. I have an elephant collection, btw.

Coral snake. Red next to yellow, kill a fellow. Red next to black, a friend to Jack. I assume that this applies to females as well. The coral snake has the strongest venom of any snake in the Americas.

Red next to black is referring to the king snake (not venomous):

@Roberta,
I once had to kill a coral snake, because Punky the dog was trying to pick it up.

@farmerman,
Definitely a thud-worthy black bear cub. Thanks, vonny.

FM, Very cute hippo calf. Not lunch. Behave yourself! And thanks for the pic.

Never smile at a crocodile . . . don't be taken in by his welcome grin . . .
