    They're beautiful! I've never seen so many sitting down before! Maybe its because I've only seen them in Africa and if they sat down for a bit they might get chomped by a lion! :)

    I missed the writing to begin with and wondered if it was Werribee. Love that zoo, and how at the Mansion there was a sculpture that was a photo fram that looked out over the zoo, so it looked like a framed picture of the animals on the plain :)

    We went to Mlebourne Zoo for our photo this week :)

    BTW, linky seems to be only working when you enter your link, and from a separate page, and I love the new look, very fresh :)

    I've always thought giraffes were weird; there's something absurd about them and their long necks, and quite wonderful.

    Giraffes are so cool :) When Annie was a baby we went with a Giraffe them for her toys and the few decorations we had :)

    i never got to Werribee in the 10 yrs I lived in Melb. I love Giraffe though, they are so unusual.

    Nice pic, I seen some giraffes in a zoo here in London a few months ago and they looked so unhappy. I think they would rather be taking their chances with the lions in the real jungle!

    Oh how lovely! I have never in all my days seen giraffes sitting and I have seen them countless times in parks in South Africa.

    What a wonderful way to clean up a smelly place. they are so close! I love the second shot, it looks as if your daughter called out to them & they turned to answer & say hello :)

    Is that a park or a zoo? Love the Giraffes. They look so pristine.

    Looks like the remodeled location is enjoyed by visitor and occupants. I'm glad to see the giraffes have a huge place to wander.
