Suspicious Hippo

Looks like the Hippo got all cleaned up just for the photo op, Jaapv :slight_smile:
The head turn with the right foot elevated and bent leg is a classic hippo photo pose. Lol

Seriously though, this has to be the cleanest hippo I’ve ever seen.

Nice image! :slight_smile:

Great pose, eye contact and the raised foot makes it a winner.
I agree, one of the cleanest Hippo.
