I could have deleted that post, but left it for the amusement of others.. But they didn't look tall as elephants and they were having a high old time, two of them, completely submerged and wallowing, splashing, frolicking around and then they left

I just looked, they were there and then gone and then nothing but flying creatures and crickets. So I left.

Been watching some geese for a long long time.. it is amazing to be able to see such detail.. each feather being cleaned, some rain on the pond, even see insects running away as one of them has breakfast. Early some herds went through but we've had these geese (or ducks, whatever) for awhile.. There is a pair.

Right now one has his/her bill firmly planted between wings but is standing on two feet, the other the same but on one foot.

Seamonkey, I saw those 'hippos's too! I know they were not elephants and I didn't see a horn so I don't think they were rhinos! They sure looked like hippos to me and I remember thinking, I didn't know that hippos strolled around from water hole to water hole.

I was quite surprised to see them! They were quite low to the ground and it was only the two, so I wonder what they could have been if not hippos!

YES!!
And they were having a such a good time, splishing and splashing!!

And I haven't seen anything since that remotely resembles them in shape or stature.. very strange.

Hippopotamus translates to 'river horse'. I too have no knowledge of them going from pond to pond. I'll just have to do some research.

There are some amazing screen caps in that thread. Early in the thread someone capped this owl in night vision, with a frog hanging out of its beak. Later someone capped a big heron with a frog. And there is a jackal running with something, people think it could be a rabbit or a small robuk or something.

I was at Nkorho Pan (Wavelit) the night of the heron with the frog. It was just amazing. I got quite a lot of pictures of it. The heron just kept dunking and dunking it and waving it around.

So ... frolicking warthogs, eh? Reminds me of Glenn and Newman in the Brothers and Sisters thread.

Doggone it, every time I click on wavelit, I get an empty watering hole!

I did get the geese (or whatever) the other day, but they were rather boring. And one time overnight I got two giraffe, but one had his back to me, and the other one just stood there staring and chewing. After a while that got pretty boring too.
