Those ellie bulls in that area are always a bit strange O** O** O**

We once turned around on the Tzendze Loop because one was not willing to clear the road :shock:

We do also always see tsessebes only in the area around Mopani X#X

You had a couple of stunning sightings there although it still is looking extreme dry :-(

Thank you all for the nice comments \O

The next morning we decided to take it easy and make breakfast at our bungalow. This was the big day we will meet the Dimwits O-/

But that will only be at 12 so we decided to take another road trip to Mooiplaas waterhole.

Just outside the gate we saw some movement in the bush. A big heard of elephants wanted to cross the road causing a small road block

Image

This little one checked us out for a while.....then he asked his mommy: is that aliens I smell mommy -O-

Image

Mommy I'm afraid of aliens

Image

Come mommy lets run

Image

I'm getting out of here

Image

The cars in front of us never gave these elephants any space. And this lady decided she wants a better view :evil:

Image

And then the next little one came flying over the road...... look at my wings mommy....I can fly

Image

Image

Then came big brother to make sure he is ok

Image

After they crossed the road this youngster was still checking us out. Mommy these aliens look weird O**

Image

Aliens I'm watching you

Image

Next stop...... Mooiplaas waterhole


Next trip to the bush??

Let me think......................

That is a VERY dangerous situation, Alpheus! :shock:

It is highly unusual for the babies to leave the moms, looking at your pics? -O-

Those cars were lucky, IMO...maybe a herd not really used to tourists? :evil:
