EARLY MORNING "VISITOR"Posted by: ranger in SBT - Daily Game Reports on Avr 20, 2012 Tagged in: Bushtops Daily Game Reports

Reporting Date: 20th April 2012
Early morning “visitor”.
This week has seen the camp being visited by elephants on a daily basis during the day as well as the night. Sometimes they come in small groups and at times singly as was the case today when a big bull visited the camp early at dawn and turned it into a feeding ground. The elephant was very relaxed as is often the case with these animals if not disturbed, they easily forget about their surroundings and carry on with whatever they are doing. The guests in the tent watched this “visitor” while enjoying their breakfast on the verandah.
