Description

Photo taken in July, 2013 @ Natura Artis Magistra, Royal Amsterdam Zoo, The Netherlands

Lots of people manage to catch a drinking Giraffe on camera. I had one before, even submitted it here to DA, but felt it wasn't good enough.

So here's a do-over. And, if you look close enough, you can even see its flicking tongue!

 

Species: Reticulated or Somali Giraffe (Netgiraf)

Latin name: Giraffa Camelopardalis Reticulata

Originates from Somalia, southern Ethiopia and northern Kenya.

Giraffes are so beautiful. I like how you can see the waves in the water where the tongue is.
