We are slowly walking along this Elephant path
when suddenly this chap steps out from the brush.
He shows us his displeasure at our intrusion
with a couple of trumpet blasts, a raised trunk,
pointing his tusks at us and flapping his ears.
Ant speaks to him with a quiet voice, saying:
"yeah, you're a good boy, sure you are, good boy"
It may be a coincidence, or Ant's soothing tones
might influence him.
The Elephant slowly turns around and walks back
from where he came.
White Backed Vultures love to sit on a high perch,
surveying the countryside for miles around them.
They can smell carrion from long distances.
This reminds me of the vulture
who took a flight with Air Canada.
Under his wings he caried three dead rabbits.
At the gate the flight attendant tells him:
"Sorry, Sir, only two carrions
per passenger.
Love the vulture shot - looking forward to getting the dvd
