Not very good shots, the Giraffes are facing away, but the formation amused me

I love 'em both.

Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

Lovely pictures. Giraffes have always been one of the least disappointing animals in the Zoo, they really are as big as you thought they were going to be.

Airedale1 Who is this thirds?. I never voted for him.

That very rare sub-species of giraffe, the "Hydra Giraffe" chop any of the heads off & 2 more grow back in its place

Nice shots

These are neat.

There's a giraffe at the Santa Barbara Zoo with a crooked neck, kind of shaped like the letter Z. I need to head back up there sometime and get a decent picture of her to post here.

Looks to me like they are doing "the wave" in that first one.

Nice shots, it might have been worth trying the built in flash on the second one.
