It was an extra early start for me. With technical problems I couldn’t get Wildcast up last night, which I meant I had to work on it before dawn.

All done I headed east looking for the lions that had been heard in the area. But with the bush so thick, finding them was all but impossible. Impossible it was today.

I kept heading east hoping to find at least some elephant on the sandveld. I was just about to give up when Tuchem came wandering out the woodlands.

He moved on to a small area with surface water. It all looked rather innocent but when he’d finished with it, he’d churned it up into the muddiest mess imaginable.

Hearing the splashing other bulls came in from different directions not wanting to miss out on the fun.

When Tuchem was done he walked right up to my door, so close I almost poked him in the eye with my lens. He stood there for ages not doing anything and then slowly sauntered off.
What a dude!
