I sat in my blue little car when all of a sudden four long and majestic legs crossed my view. Following the legs up into the blue this lovely face came in sight... ;-)

I have been to a wildlife sanctuary in northern Germany called "Serengeti-Park Hodenhagen". You can drive by car (your own one!) through several areas full of animals from all over the world (e.g. bears, zebras, horses, lions and tigers) or you can go by bus. The animals decide whether to come close to your car or stay away. You are allowed to get off your car in some areas (ponies or goats live there), in other areas you are allowed to open your windows, in some you have to keep doors and windows closed.

At the beginning and end of the tour through all of these areas you come past the giraffes. Most of the time they like to come to the cars to get some goodies. It is quite impressive to have their noses inside your car! And even more impressive it is when they stand on one side of the car but come through the opposite window...

PP: only cropped, added frames and resized.

Thanks for having a look at this friendly animal. Have a nice and sunny day wherever you are. Kindest regards, Britta

Hallo Britta,
Lovely capture of this beautiful animal, I like this lower POV, because the clear, partly cloudy sky gives us a perfect background wit nice contrast to the giraffe. Brightness and sharpness are excellnt, well done! TFS.
Greetings,
Kristof
