Thank you for your comments, very much appreciated ^Q^ ^Q^

Of course my next destination was Big T again. On my way to get there I saw a herd of buffs who crossed the road just beside me and some Ostriches :-)

At Big T I was very happy to notice that the lions were there again. Only the Warthog was missing :shock: And the Wildebeests were not brave enough to produce the same funny show that I witnessed th day before...

After a while it became to hot and I decided to go back to camp fora rest. But as always I drove towards Shipandani and again it was very worth to go there. I saw more Elephants who came there for a drink and it was very entertaining to watch them. I never get tired to see Elephants near water, in these moments you can see how wonderful animals they are.. But I don't want to use so many words, I think the pics speak their own story :-)
