~ A small family group of Giraffa camelopardalis reticulata, Reticulated Giraffe, was browsing around a large dead tree. We stopped to observe them, drove on to another area, then saw them again when we retraced our route. From their reaction, one had the sense that they may not have been habituated to safari vehicles. They appeared to be both curious and perplexed by our presence, ceasing their browsing activity to look at us. Their beauty under clear blue skies was one of the most striking scenes I've ever been privileged to see firsthand in Kenya.
