I was out on safari the other day, and it was one of those mornings where there’s not much going on….any activity from the night before has gone quiet and it all seems calm on the plains and in the thickets.
We found this group of giraffe milling around on the sand at the water’s edge. It’s a place where giraffes and elephants often cross the water since it’s very shallow and there’s little risk of crocodile attack.
However, just like everything else that morning, they didn’t seem to be in a hurry, preferring to wander around on the sand, waiting for their moment. A few drank from the river and eventually we left them on the sand as the sun climbed higher and the temperature rose.
