Nice! :)

You know, that's an interesting giraffe you have there. I've never noticed giraffes having three of those horn-like protrusions on their heads before. I always thought they only had 2 and a bump on the forehead.

I don't think I have ever seen a giraffe with a horn in the middle of it's head either. Great shots. Thanks for the up close moment.

Funny you should mention that, I noticed that too when I took some pics of giraffes today. Nice shots Geoff.
