Kruger National Park 30+ years of safari experience makes one sit in a hot car in the reserve (engine off, no aircon) and watch and wait for the shot to happen. It's a regular pastime of mine :)
Join me if you ever head this way :)
The family were playing in the water for hours and then suddenly they stopped, got out and went over and starting caking themselves with dust whilst wet. It suffocates parasites and acts as a sunblock.
Then without a sound the Bull emerged from the bush, as silent as a cat. He walked past his family, ignoring them, then one by one they stopped dust bathing and followed him into the bush.
It is a little known fact that Elephants communicate with one another with a rumbling noise emanating from their stomachs. We could hear this parked almost 100 meters from them...no trumpeting, just rumbles thanks to the engine being off. With windows open it's not that bad and correctly dressed and a cooler box full of cold ones...
