A mother's love (Single)
DESCRIPTION
A mother giraffe, with her very young baby, stands alone in the Maasai Mara. We were fortunate to spend a few quiet minutes as they let us into their world, and as she bonded with her youngster. Despite the serenity of the scene, they were actually in the heart of a leopard's territory, and a leopard would happily hunt a young giraffe given the opportunity. Thus, we were happy when they headed off over the horizon, safe for another day.
