The Llamas of Machu Picchu

Probably one of the most photographed places on the planet, but at least I struck lucky and managed to get 5 of the 11 resident llamas to stay put while I got some shots. Machu Picchu, Peru.

The Llamas of Machu Picchu belongs to the following groups:

    Wow, this landscape is so amazing. My avian doctor (Sidney’s doc) is going to Peru soon, to study wild Macaws. Did you see any there?

    Lovely image Krys.

    Thanks Kimmie. Peru is apparently a top location for bird-lovers. I didn’t see Macaws (we were in the high altitude and coastal regions, not the jungle) but did encouter a delightful Toucan and some Condors!

    Thank you Maria! I wasn’t brave enough to do the Inca trail, but I did pat some llamas and alpacas – even a Vicuna! Hope you get there one day!

    Thank you, Bianca! I adore llamas too! I would keep one as a pet if I could. Just imagine taking it to the supermarket and loading it up with the shopping! ;)
