A CHANGE OF PACE TODAY - ELEPHANTS!


(Pictures are from pixabay.com)

Hello Everyone, 

These are fun videos to watch for animal lovers.  They are about one elephant herd in Zambia at the Mfuwe Lodge.  
All I'm saying is the mango orchard was there before the lodge!  
You may need to skip out of the adverts at the front of the video.  They change every time I look, and if there are any pop-ups just 'x' out.
The first video not shows other wildlife in that area.

 Next, at one point the baby elephant decides to take a nap in the foyer and the whole herd stops in its tracks and waits for the baby to wake up.

and
I have several videos of this amazing spectacle.  I loved every one but picked these to share today.  If you want to see the others you can just do a search for 'the elephants at Mfuwe Lodge' at YouTube.com 

 The last one is one taken by a tourist.  Guess who came to breakfast?  They - the tourists - looked a little worried.  
Not only elephants roam through Mfuwe Lodge.  A pride of lions have been known to be uninvited guests also.   
For wildlife lovers everywhere!


Enjoy and I hope your days are good ones.

    I like that Pitta bird. And the bats against the orange sky are gorgeous. The baby elephant sure had trouble with the steps!

      Thanks Ginny :) The world always fascinates me, so many wonders to see. I thought that baby was going to fall, actually found myself encouraging him out loud, lol!

    i have seen a lot of these videos before but not the last one. Those people were terrified. I have been in that lodge myself but no unfortunately not when the elephants walked through.

      What a wonderful experience that must have been Margaret. Plenty of amazing sights to behold around there even if you didn't see the elephants at the lodge I would say :)

      No, I think I would be a bit nervous about those lions, probably the wild elephants also, amazed but nervous :) and in total awe of those magnificent animals.
