Upset Elephant: Driving From Olifants to Shimuwini

Kinda angry
<-- This way to hippos
Upset Elephant: Driving From Olifants to Shimuwini by perlgurl.org.
There's a funny story here about this African Elephant. Basically, this is the AFTER picture, as we frantically drove away. This guy heard the hippos stampeding and got upset and came running out of the bush at us. Ok, so it wasn't very funny at the time. It basically meant we got stuck between the pod of hippos and the perturbed elephant. I barely got this picture because we were mostly trying to extricate ourselves from the mess...

(Kruger National Park, Day 4) These are just some candids from my digital point and shoot camera, often taken from the car while it was moving, etc. You'll see dirty windshields, terrible lighting, dirty lenses... You know, what it's really like. ;)

For my "real" (read: way nicer) nature photography from this trip, please check out my African Field Notes on Naturally Speaking
