EVERY week we are blessed with a colourful, eye-catching picture taken by a talented photographer from the Selsdon Camera Club.

Animal lovers should appreciate this instalment, called simply Giraffe.

It was snapped by Virginia Dawe whilst on her African travels.

She said: "I took this picture with my Canon 400D while on holiday in Chobe Safari Park, Botswana.

"This giraffe was feeding right near the track and the red billed oxpecker is feasting on the ticks."
