$5 to feed them...

Visit to the Zoo. Having never seen giraffes up close, this was a great treat! Three long necks and 12 legs! A veritable jigsaw design!

Three Good Things:
1. Utah has some weird rules - not allowed in one particular bar without our passport! Nobody seemed to know anything about this rule. Went to another!
2. We got well over our 3000 steps goal in each, in this Zoological Park.
3. Is it bad to just have an ice-cream for lunch?

[Simply Amanda]

I wanna do that someday!

[Lisa Pouncy]

We visited a safari park on Friday and I took some shots of giraffe including a close up on the patterned skin. Have you noticed how they're all so different xx

[Harry J Benson]

it is a great zoo; the first liger - Shasta was born and raised here. Ice cream is acceptable at any time :)

[Maggiemae]

@psychographer No, I didn't Lisa! But I do know that there is no black and white cow that is the same!

[Beryl Lloyd]

They look very healthy ! -- nice shot !

[Lesley Chisholm]

Aren't they beautiful creatures? It looks like they have a lovely enclosure. We fed the giraffe's at Wellington Zoo. So fun.

[Bep]

Nice shot!
#3 I don't think it's bad to have ice-cream for lunch...assuming you don't do that every day ;-)

[Leslie]

Ice Cream makes a great lunch . Love Giraffes

[Maggiemae]

@lesip @gijsje It was so hot so ice-cream was the best - dripped all over me!

[Ann Williams]

Eat what and when you feel like it. Ice-cream for lunch sounds good to me. Fantastic colours and subjects Maggiemae.

[Sarah]

Wonder animals and great image

[katy]

A terrific shot of these giraffes and I love your description of them very much. Good for you forgetting all your steps in and one of the main reasons I grew up with so I could eat ice cream whenever I want to. I think having it for lunch is a grand idea

[Sally Ings]

As far as I know giraffe markings and zebra markings are as unique as fingerprints. We have had giraffes walk so close by the car in a game park that you could reach out and touch it.

[FBailey]

Lucky you!

[Valerie Chesney]

Brilliant, I so like Giraffes.....Big Fav

[Pat Knowles]

The first time I saw a giraffe live was in the Zoo in Hamilton, I agree they are quite a sight! An ice cream fir lunch is perfect! USA has gone eclipse mad by the news stories over here!

[Helen Jane]

processing brings out all the lovely rich designs on the giraffes coats. I agree about the jigsaw design. Perhaps you should get it made.

[gloria jones]

Great shot, processing...#3 No it's not bad it's good :).

[Maggiemae]

@happypat It was on every TV and we went out and saw it through the proper glasses! Quite incredible and at the most dark part there was some light and shadow but the sunlight was cold!

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn We were only allowed an ice-cream at the movies, Katy, when we were girls and we went to movies about twice a year!

[Lou Ann]

What a great shot!

[Dawn]

A wonderful shot

[*lynn]

wonderful shot ... they are so beautiful

[aikimomm (phoebe)]

Giraffes are my very favorite animal. This is a great shot of them -- wonderful light!

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae so lucky to be actually there! I was amazed when we saw how beautiful it was, 2090 the next one here so I will be long gone! We had one when we first moved to this house but it was a bit of a let down, must not have been in exactly the right place!

[Tony]

The combination makes for interesting patterns.

[belinda]

Definitely NO to #3

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Taffy]

Laughing at the rules in your list. We used to have to join a bar 'club' for $5.00 a year, to be allowed to order a drink!

[Sylvia du Toit]

Love this.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot

[CC Folk]

Yes...Utah can have some very strange rules. I have a friend who moved from California to Utah and tells me about them. Nice capture of the giraffe family! :)
