They are sooo beautiful…and at first, when I saw it small, it thought they were seed pods of some kind. Imagine my surprise to see these lovely creatures. Great shot!

We visited the orphanage on our visit to Kenya. Some of the same pics. One with the handlers bottle feeding a baby elephant with a bottle the size of a gas tank.

Once they have overcome some of the trauma, they play together like young children, just rather more roughly!
