The tallest animal of all - a photo on Flickriver

The tallest animal of all

            Taller than every other animal on the planet. Even taller than the building. Well...maybe not, but male giraffe is about 20 ft. tall. Which is pretty damn tall. And the only thing giraffes get for being so tall is an ability to eat leaves straight from the trees instead of eating grass. I say they should move closer to the city and annoy everyone by peeping into second story windows! 

I took this a few years ago right outside of Nairobi -- so close, in fact, that you can see the buildings here (still far enough for peeping into the windows though). I will be in Kenya for the next couple of weeks, but because I am not sure if I will have any time for fun, non-work related excursions, I decided to repost an old shot. One more is in the comments. Giraffes are the coolest, aren't they?
