Show Critters
There are lots of animals at the Canberra show each year, and Mum drags Dad and I around to see most of them. I don't mind because I like most animals, except for dogs that try to grab me and chew me. One sort that I hadn't seen much of before is the alpaca, and there was a whole shed full of them. They look like long-legged, long-necked sheep but are a lot cuter and heaps smarter. Going by the way that they all looked at me and followed my every move they think that I am cute as well. I really like the noise they make. It sounds a bit like a contented cat in a tin box, and sometimes they sort of whistle as well. But they do scare easily so you have to make sure that you don't make sudden moves near them. That's why I am sitting quietly talking to this one. And the cow? Well, you know about Mum and cows, so we always come home with lots of cow photos. This little calf was a real cutie, the best of the hundreds of cows that were at the show, in my opinion.
