This is the shot I didn't know I'd taken, until I loaded up my photos from a little photoshoot at Marwell Zoo today.

I concentrated on penguins and giraffes, my favourites.

Funny I've been thinking of the giraffe as 'he' and now I realise I have no idea how to tell!!

(S)he did n`t listen to her/his Mother when she told, keep you tongue inside ,that`s not nice to other people and you can have a bite on it.
Great, funny and beautiful capture

Great minds must think alike because my ALL TIME favourite animal is the Giraffe! They are such magnificent creatures - if I go to the zoo, I think 90% of my photos are of the giraffe hahahahah FAV!

@quietpurplehaze How very true - and I'm only 5 foot tall so they absolutely tower over me!!!!
