An elephant at my gate!

It was a busy week with animals here at Amukela.
On my way to and from school I saw giraffes on a daily basis. because of all the rain last week they prefer the higher area of the Marula road with less mud.

 A warthog family comes in our camp regularly to eat from the grass. Normally this only happens in winter when food is scarce but this family doesn't seem to mind my presence.








I also see lots of zebra's and this curious kudu on my way home.






Then some elephants come to visit our waterhole. It is always nice to see these giants but when the biggest one takes a dust bad right in front of my open gate I can't help but wonder if I should have closed it...
