Description

Chow time for these giraffes in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve here in South Africa that is... The meal they are enjoying are leaves from a young acacia tree - their favourite snack!!! These guys were part of a herd of 9-10 giraffes. They were on both sides of the road and were just very peacefully chowing away and criss-crossing the road right in front of us. It was magic... I shot off an obscene amount of images! Once again, I chose this one as it shows a bit of the surroundings! Thank you for your visit and for your very welcome and valued comments and favs on my upload of the hyena and surroundings yesterday! Take care! Hugs, Carin xx
