Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands enjoyed a day out at the zoo this week.
The 69-year-old royal visited Rotterdam Zoo to mark the tourist attraction’s 150th anniversary.
During her tour the queen met with local children dressed as giraffes in special animal costumes and face paint.
Hello! website reports, the sovereign was also shown a life-like mechanical giraffe, which she playfully stroked.
Earlier this month, the queen celebrated the birth of her latest grandchild, Princess Ariane.
The princess - who was born at The Hague’s Bronovo Hospital on April 10 - is the third daughter of Crown Prince Willem-Alexander and his Argentinean-born wife Princess Maxima.
The prince told reporters: ‘She is an exemplary daughter, we’re very proud. ‘We had a relaxed night and the delivery went very well. We can’t wait to show her to (her elder sisters) Amalia and Alexia.’ The newborn royal is the fourth in line to the throne, behind her sisters Amalia, three, and 22-month-old Alexia.
