Red encountered his first llamas a couple of months ago, an a magazine asked me to send them a photo so I thought I would share it. I posted some when we went out to the wool farm in Vermont to deposit the wool from Maria’s sheep. She’s selling skeins of yarn from our sheep in the Spring, when the wool is ready. For once, Red seemed a bit flustered. He went into his herding crouch, but the llamas seemed more amused than anyone else. He didn’t push it.
