I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx

    • I have never particularly liked zebras, Nancy, but the photo really got to me. I think it is my best so far. They are very attractive, but my experience with them in other situations, they can be quite a pest, ruined by people feeding them.

  4. hAHAHA, Col! The zebras look like they are going to scrum or wrestle, especially the back one leaning right into the other.
    The baby giraffe was actually with the adult with the lips, but I couldn’t get a shot of them together. Took 2 and in both the baby had a headless neck, lol.

  9. It is good to see the young ones thriving, at least that means they are procreating and will continue to survive as long as the poachers are held at bay..
