Some Pumbaa pics from 2015:
Pumbaa wrote: Wed Jan 20, 2016 11:09 pm On the S131 we spotted a steenbokkie,

and an impressive sized buffalo

close to extreme thick mopane bushes

Image

and these bushes were even so thick that the elephants cannot see or better to say you could not see the elephants when they were suddenly showing up behind a bush.

Image

We had chosen the S131 as there were some water points along the way to get a bit of a variety to the monotonous mopane dominating the area of the park and we had luck as at N’wanetsi quite a lot of animals were hanging around and it was quite an active traffic with the come and go. We discovered zebras, impalas and warthogs and for sure the plentiful occurring elephant bulls. One of them presented his impressive tusks to us

Image

Image

and abused a nearby tree as rubbing post and as sleeping point as it was a hot day and from time to time a little nap could not be refused.

Image

Image

As already said the sun shone merciless from the sky and it was already extreme hot so the place where we could park the car was lovely and shady under a huge tree and so we observed that spectacle at the water hole a bit longer.
