My walk this week started with a couple of surprises! There was more than tadpoles to see and on my arrival at The Waterside Firstly I was unexpectedly met by a couple of horses, but more of them later in the week.
The real excitement came when just before setting out on a walk round the lake with my camera and sound kit, Steve ran over to tell everyone that a new arrival in the form of an alpaca was on its way.
Tadpoles
It was difficult to know how long the delivery was going to take but it wasn’t going to be immediate so rather than hang around in a small crowd of spectators, I set off round the lake. I was back in time to see the new alpaca just after its birth. You can see it staggering around its mother in the video clip and photos below. Introducing newborn Caleb!
so cute
Isn’t it
That is a LOT of tadpoles! I’ve never seen a baby Llama either. 🙂
Thanks. That was just a fraction of all the tadpoles there. I couldn’t believe how many there were – thousands and thousands! Isn’t the alpaca baby a cutie?!
So darling!!
What a cute, leggy critter that alpaca is! Much cuter than the tadpoles, but they’re amazing in their numbers. 🙂

I thought the tadpoles were very cute but I agree, perhaps less so than the alpaca. It was fun to watch it
Haha, that alpaca! Just brings out a smile!
They are wonderful funny creatures aren’t they
