Alpacas at Horniman's

I often go to Horniman's Park and enjoy seeing the alpacas. The heat returned in the later part of May. The lockdown rules had been relaxed and Horniman's was full of people enjoying the good weather.

Even Peeps the alpaca was sunbathing, but she must have been hot in her black coat. The sheep was looking on in amazement!

She eventually sat up

Poppy the daughter was close by all the time -

They both had haircuts a few weeks ago. Poppy had been left with more leggings and bootees than mum.

The sheep and goats had also been shorn -

See more on the alpacas and fox  and on the mother and daughter alpacas.

UPDATE 2021

Sadly Peep, the mother alpaca, died on 26 Feb 2021.

I went there on 4 March and saw Poppy with the sheep. I hope she gets to join some other alpacas soon.
