Skywatch Friday - Pachyderm Skies

The sky was dull and grey but when you travel around the Addo Elephant National Park, it is possible to add a few more shades of grey and voila the sky becomes interesting.


In case you were wondering why only one elephant has tusks, it is because the female elephants at Addo do not have tusks.

    Wonderful creatures the Elephants are..so big yet can be also very gentle as well as very fearsome when called for.

    Thank you for allowing me to use this for my wallpaper. It is beautiful, now each time I turn my computer on they look like they are ready to walk right off into my lap. The picture is very clear, and I love it.

    I love the way the elephants are silhouetted against the sky! And the curl of the female's trunk, too!!
    Merry Christmas to you and yours!
