Taken Addo Elephant National Park, Eastern Cape, South Africa.
Addo Elephant National Park is a diverse wildlife conservation park situated close to Port Elizabeth in South Africa and is one of the country's 20 national parks. It currently ranks third in size after Kruger National Park and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. I spent four consecutive days within the park which provided an amazing variety of wildlife.

Elephants are sensitive fellow animals where if a baby complains, the entire family will rumble and go over to touch and caress it.
did you ever wonder why elephants are different colors? I is because of the color of the mud they roll in.

I may well not be in Flickr for a little while now, so I thought I'd sign off with a couple of photos this morning. The first being an image from undoubtedly the highlight of 2023, our safari to Kenya. It was taken in the Amboseli National Park and depicts an Elephant family who were on the march towards a water hole.

This is a tribute to my favourite wildlife artist, Zimbabwean born David Filer.
Quite a few years ago I bought one of his beautiful original pencil drawings of two dung beetles but I doubt that I could afford one now!
This is my take on his artwork "Tatenda" and the link to the original is below. His skill is such that it's difficult to distinguish his pencil drawing from a photograph. In fact I would go further and say that his drawing is more realistic and lifelike than my photo. www.manzart.com/collections/david-filer-2/products/tatenda

Pardon the simple title but when it came up, it stuck. These are wild wild elephants and I was alone in the middle of nowhere at Grootvlei dam near the border with Mozambique. I also was a bit too close for comfort but sensed that they were not in an aggressive mood. Sorry again for the childish title.
Full frame (actually too full). No crop.
