The animals I saw at Ranchos de las Golondrinas were alpaca, horses, shetland ponies (not pictured), burros, sheep and donkeys. The burro was hitched up to a mill they used to squeeze the juice out of sorghum cane to make molasses. Throughout its history villagers would have also raised pigs, chickens, cows and goats at Las Golondrinas.








Awesome shots!
Thanks, Emily!
You bet!
Great images. You have been busy!
Thanks, Susan! I know you got lots of shots of that burro turning the sorghum squeezer.
I have not even begun to process them!! You are really turning out the work!
Oh gosh I love all of these! These are just exactly what I picture in my mind! Horse and wagon awesome! Beauitful photos!
Thanks, Michelle! They try to be authentic. The burro had a lot of personality.
Oh boy don’t they always! Stubborn and funny!
Those are great photos, Timothy! I especially like that white horse. Handsome fellow!
Thanks, Lavinia! That was a beautiful horse.
I enjoyed these:)
Thanks, Janet!
They look like scenes from a lost time.
Thanks, Julia!
I love that first photo – I find the alpaca’s face to be quite intriguing… odd, but cute!
Thanks, Janna!
