I went this weekend and visited some of my friends in Thabazimbi(South Africa). They spoiled us by taking us for cocktails and while we were sitting there sipping our cocktails these guys came to say hello

Wow can't remember when last I went to Thabazimbi.
Shoo the veld looks very dry at the moment, they probably also need lots of rain like most of South Africa.

They got alot of field fires ..so yes they need alot of water

I am very glad to see that you are including your children as part of your content creation. This way they get used to the idea of using Steemit and creating content.

When they eventually have their own accounts then it will be easier for them to understand what it is all about.

thx for sharing

Great post and I wish steemit had a sticky or pin option because this is one of those special posts. ??

Thank you for your comment you are so kind

Very nice, giraffes are awesome

Excelentes fotos, involucrar a los niños en tan impactante experiencia eso ayuda a crear sentimiento de conservación de la vida silvestre a respetarla, algo tan difícily a la vez importante en este mundo tan complicado

Thank you

Nice shots, I have never seen a Giraffe in real life. How far did you take the shots from?

Not even 15meters. I hope you get a opportuinity soon!

Great post and I enjoyed these pictures!

Thank you very much . I am glad you enjoyed it. Cheers

1st,3rd and 5th pictures are kind of my FAVORITE.

You are fortunate indeed, to get to 'relax', sit, & watch the world go by

That 9 year old is a better photographer than I am. lol I love all animals, but Africa has some of the most amazing, and majestic beasts on the planet. I wrote an article about the African Elephant horrors. It would be a truly sad day if we let these beautiful animals be poached into extinction. Thanks for posting this. Giraffes are just cool!!

Yes i hope that day never comes. I think that will be the starting point of the end of humans!

Fun fact, giraffes can put their tongues in their ears.
