urbpanHEY THERE A.L. THANKS FOR YOUR DONATION HERE'S THE GIRAFFE FEEDING POST!
This day's snapshot is the backs of zoo guests watching the giraffe family milling about.
Left to right we see Beau, Henrietta, and Jana.
Our daily giraffe encounters are a pretty amazing feature. I'm surprised more people don't take the opportunity to see these amazing animals up close. How close?
Pretty close. The zookeeper called Beau over, rattling a container of diced squash pieces to get the message across--food's on! I know I was supposed to get a pic of the big black tongue, but Beau ate very discreetly. I'll try to get a tongue pic some other time.
Nine guests came up for the encounter, and Beau took food from almost everyone. He was spooked by one of the guest's electric wheelchair, and left the platform. The zookeeper tried to call him back but he kept his distance. Jana is even more nervous, and never comes to the platform when there are guests there.
