On the way home from yesterday evening’s game drive I took this image of a Giraffe silhouette in front of the moon. Twilight mood on Thanda!

Silhouette
This morning on my way to work 😊 A long neck is excellent for silhouette pictures!

THE DAILY POST – PERFECT LIGHT
The sun only came through for a few minutes on this overcast and rainy day but the lighting was perfect for this Giraffe image.
Have a good day!
PS: Yesterday’s bird was a Wahlberg’s Eagle 🦅

THE DAILY POST – LONG NECKS TOO SHORT
Giraffe necks are quite long and they use them efficiently for their own grooming. But looking at the overall animals their necks are too short!
Why? Because adult Giraffe have to spread their front legs apart in a very awkward and vulnerable posture to be able to drink. I have not seen any other mammal that has to do these sort of acrobatics to get a drink.
Conclusion: Their necks are too short or their legs are too long 😊
