A really cool experience, to photograph this Rhino on foot. Some may feel the wispy grass over the horn is a distraction, but I was kneeling down, not wishing to shoot from a standing position which may have attracted even more attention from this guy. The Ox peckers I think added to the scene sitting on the ridge of his back

Thanks to those who viewed or posted a comment on the previous thread.

Always good to see one of these iconic creatures surviving Steve, a bit more room all around would be nice - if you have it.

Almost FF as I said in the spec sadly Carol, but there are more I'm sure to follow in time.

Thanks
