Makes me wish to be on a safaris, too. Love the earth's tones and the lovely shades of brown of the buffalos. Can't wait for the elephant photos...my all-time favorite animal.

The herd looks thirsty. They sure are odd looking animals, aren't they? Hope the rest of your safari is as exciting!

Well, it will be hard to top this reflection today! Great shot and I love how you got them to space themselves for the perfect lighting and composition.
