You know why giraffes don’t eat very much? – they make a little go a long way!

fantastic

Lisa G. Putman, 5 months ago

Oh, my gosh! This is great! The repetition is so wonderful and I love the sky , so dramatic! Love it! You’ve got to love giraffes. It is so funny to watch them sit down like this. It takes forever…and the older ones seems to have trouble getting down there, sometimes.

Wow, what a perfect capture!

Helene Kippert, 5 months ago

Fantastic shot Julie!

Anthony Hedger, 5 months ago

Nice work Julie – a lovely shot.

Now perhaps you can clear up this point for me, do Giraffes sit down because it’s going to rain (like cows do) or is it because they are tired and need the rest?

budrfli, 5 months ago

So beautiful! i want to join them! lovely capture!

Lucindawind, 5 months ago

bonniemonahan1, 4 months ago

Hi Again Julie,
Long Neck Picnic is lovely. I was you would had made the Giraffe’s lighter – The sun was against you’ and it’s not dark enough to be a silhouette in this shot.
Take care, Bonnie

Angel Ortiz, 4 months ago

this is so good amiga

DaisyLadiE, 4 months ago

How lucky you were to have been there when they did that. When I go to Woburn Safari park I always leave the Giraffes until last, my treat for a six or seven hour day. They are my favourite. They walk with such elegance and they are truly beautiful too. Wow they even sit with such superiority and grace.
Thank you for sharing.
