Just saw the new baby giraffe at Riverbanks Zoo on the news – TOO CUTE! Hard to believe that at 10 days old he is nearly as tall as I am! Next to cats (of all types), the giraffe is my favorite animal. They are so weird looking, but cute and fascinating.
I love the fact that Riverbanks allows you to feed the giraffes – which lets you get up close with them. When we took the biology classes there last year, the giraffes were the crowd favorites.
If you haven’t visited Riverbank’s website, I encourage you to do so. They have a live webcam – today they are featuring the Koalas. The last time I watched, they featured the penguins. I wonder if they’ll feature the giraffes soon now that baby Lewis has arrived?!
Thanks for the reminder. We have an annual pass to the zoo (which includes Riverbanks). I guess some time next week I will be heading there to check out the giraffe!
Hey, field trip? I’m game! Would love to meet up with you if you’re down this way.
