3 May 2016 – Drive loops in Halali area, Etosha

3 May 2016 – Drive loops in Halali area, Etosha

The area around Halali has little diversity.  It is ‘savannah’, where you can’t see much from your vehicle, or you can reach the pan where you can see for miles.  We saw gemsbok walking on the pan; ‘miles’ out! We drove some of the loops and a saw many animals.
We went back to the camp and to the waterhole. This time elephants came to drink. Quite a few young ones and even babies. When we arrived, there was a group of 12,  five of them  left and then we saw 11 coming from the bushes and join the other. The elephants were the only animals that worked out where the water inlet pipe is and ‘only’ drank there.  One even walked backed after the herd started leaving the hole, to drink from that site again, as the water is of much better quality here.


Trees are nicer than elephants.
Halali Camp, Etosha.
