Llamas are such fun animals that even their name gives me a chuckle. Since "llama" (in Spanish means, "It calls" or "It is called",) this seems to be the one animal that got Adam stumped in the Creation story. He seems to have approached the Llama and exclaimed, "And this animal is called... It's called...llama...llama...Hey! Llama! That's a good name for it!!!!" :} Of course on the other hand, the one in front seems to have just stepped off the subway in the Bronx and is starring down the photographer as if to say, "Yea, Yea, Yea! Same ta you, Buddy!" :}

4 - As there are two girls here, like to have seen both in focus, also the focal area a little wider to include the eyes as sharp as those choppers seem to be.
