zoo animals friends ostrich giraffe

Photographer's Notes

I was intrigued by these two animals. I have never seen a giraffe sitting before, and I definitely have never seen one cuddling with an ostrich. Thanks for all comments and suggestions. Full screen please.

roadrunner 5/6/2008 7:27:57 AM	Excellent capture.I think like humans most animals enjoy having time to spend with other animals .No one likes to be alone all the time. Amaziny shot.
charliecoyote St. Thomas 5/6/2008 7:12:59 AM	Wonderful capture! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it! WOW! This is so special, glad it came around for a second time! It warms the heart & boggles the mind!
mcgriffl South of Paradise 5/5/2008 6:42:17 PM	This picture is so special, it almost made me cry. Such beauty and it speaks of friendship among different species.
kasto Stoby 4/2/2008 1:21:13 PM	A great capture! r10
Calypso NW Oregon 3/17/2008 4:38:58 PM	I'm not sure how I missed this one, but better late than never :o) This would definitely have caught my eye, too! It certain seems an unusual sight, and a rather touching one as well. There is a message here for all EF members -- we CAN get along if we just agree to disagree. Perhaps the ostrich and giraffe have little in common. Perhaps they have very little to talk about. But still, they have found "common ground" enough to occupy the same space peacefully. This shot goes far deeper than the depiction. Good job.
cuba1869 cairo 3/16/2008 3:26:55 AM	OMG,this is so funny,trying to guess what they are talking about LOL Great Capture Dude definitely R10,its like once in a life time to find something like this :D Thumbs Up
Angeleyesdar811 Dundalk 3/7/2008 11:07:06 AM	What an amazing capture you have here. I cannot believe you have not received any awards. I have never seen a giraffe and ostrich together. They look like soul mates looking out over the water.
