Animals seen on game drive

What an amazing experience to sit in our land rover watching elephants ripping up grass and listening to them chew it! Our group of 6 people plus guide & tracker sat enraptured for 45 minutes next to this group of 12 elephants.
We also saw a lot of giraffe - notice the red-billed ox picker (bird) on his head?
And lions! We came upon 6 cubs, 2 lionesses and this 1 male in the morning; then in the evening we found them again and watched the cubs eating a recently killed warthog.
A waterbuck, which is always found close to water (its refuge in case of predators)
