While the adults were busy feeding, the calves took great pleasure in playing in a mud puddle they had discovered after overnight rain.

Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia.

Bet that was fun to watch Carol. Would love a trip to sth Africa and Zambia would suit just fine. Elephants and rhinos really appeal the most, with birds and cats next. Very nice to see.

Just like little kids- looks like they are really having a muddy time.

I wonder if their mom will make them take a clean bath!
