April does a cute little ballet movement with her left hind foot/hoof/whatever. Elephants are so wonderful—especially the fuzzy little babies—so huggable!

Today, the baby seems to be moving around a lot; and April throws her head back toward her flanks, when it does.

She’s been very restless today/tonight, prancing a lot and laying down less often, as far as I’ve been able to watch; maybe things are imminent. But I think the zoo folks may have gotten her dates wrong - apparently it’s very hard to gauge all of this, with Giraffe ladies ;-)

(Tonight my husband and I were wondering why in the world God dressed her like that; husband thought that she and those ‘decorated’ like her, may have developed in a dry area, where she would look like dry, cracked earth; or maybe like a rocky landscape. Other giraffes seem, to the eye, to be more “spotted”, their coats less delineated):
