We bimbled down to see the giraffes. Here we would attempt to get THE picture. We had seen what we had thought was an iconic picture last year, whether true or set-up, we wanted to have a go for ourselves. Said picture appears on much of the zoo advertising and indeed the site map, which we carried around all day has it as a lead picture.

Disappointed, we found them all in their hutch. Bear posed with the statue that shows the world’s tallest baby. Then we saw a head appear.

More heads appeared, then we realised that they were patiently waiting for their keeper to restock their snacks. That done they all trooped out.

These tall and elegant creatures bimbled straight to their treats. This may take longer than we thought.

Too much movement and lack of pose.

Disinterested and busy.

The nearly picture – until my mate swung his fodder into frame.
