Elephant bathing

by George
(South Africa)

We saw some elephants walking through the bush near Skukuza. We were going to drive past them as pictures of walking elephants are not great and there was not much sun.

One elephant strayed from the rest and went to a waterhole and began to drink and he then started to throw water on himself.

A bit of patience allowed us to get an action picture of one of the big-five animals.
