The herd of Ellies kept us entertained as one of the little ones decided that it is just too hot and flopped down in the middle of the herd. It was amazing how carefully the adults stepped around it and protected the little one.

Two young bulls were play fighting and showing off for us. The matriarch made sure we didn’t venture too close
making her presence known. It was a great sighting just north of MRL and we were the only vehicle in the sighting so we spent nearly an hour with them, with all our guests. Amazing quality sighting of the world’s largest mammal. Actually, that’s not quite true … largest mammal living on land! Quite some whales are bigger.

We also saw lions, and quite a few other animals, but yesterday’s sighting du jour was the elephants – top quality, and amazing footage too. Our guests had loads of smiles on their faces when they got bacl to the lodge.
