Lunch time

The camel in front was partially buried in the hay and seemed to want to keep control over it.

The hay is delivered in enormous amounts by truck, which I meant to get a picture of but remembered too late, when all the trucks had disappeared. I can't help but wonder what the camels eat in the desert.

Nice capture of this group of camels. They all seem to be "one humpers".

Wonderful shot, Helen. Some are always greedier than the others ;-). *V*

Cute group shot of the camels having their lunch. I was wondering what the difference was between the light and the dark ones and after same time I came to the conclusion that it was only their colors:) V

Lovely group shot of these guys. They look like patient eaters. V

Eating as much as possible when they can get it seems logical behavior in that environment. Very nice shot of these camels enjoying their food. I like the little white one. "V"

I love this arrangement of overlapping forms and their expressions - they all seem smugly amused at something. V

I think one of their main qualities is that they don't need to; lovely humpscape
