I grew up on a small farm in England and my mother took me out to Africa every year to see her old backyard. She took me out into the wilder areas of Zim, and that\u2019s where I experienced my first safaris. Normally we\u2019d explore reserves that were off the beaten track, before heading to some of the more prestigious Southern African safari areas as I grew older.<\/p>\n<p>I ended up moving to South Africa when I was 18. I worked on our farm in KwaZulu-Natal (near Durban, South Africa) and worked at safari camps as a camp manager. I then gained my commercial pilot\u2019s licence and headed to the Okavango Delta, where I worked as a pilot\/guide flying staff, freight, and guests into the Wilderness Safaris camps \u2013 an amazing job that allowed me to interact with guests and experience this wonderful wilderness area 24\/7.<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-720206\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-spacer wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light mobile-space-40 tablet-space-40 desktop-space-40\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\">\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-906158\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-wysiwyg wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md wak-theme-light wak-content-layout-default\"\n    data-color-mode=\"light\"\n    data-theme=\"light\">\n    \n    <div class=\"wak-copy wak-copy-content-wysiwyg-container wak-body-standard-text\" ><div class=\"column--padded \">\n<div class=\"grid__container \">\n<div class=\"columns \">\n<div class=\"column is-offset-1 is-10\" data-gridtype=\"gridRichText\">\n<article class=\"wysiwyg base_padded content\">\n<div class=\"block is-size-5\">\n<p>Why am I going into so much detail about my life? Well, hopefully to give you the impression that even though I\u2019m only in my early thirties, I have seen a lot when it comes to safaris in Southern Africa and I have some pretty amazing animal sightings in the bank. I\u2019m extremely fortunate to be at a stage of safari where pretty much anything interests me, as long as I am out in the bush. I delight in the quirky, rare, interesting behaviour of wildlife, no matter how big or small \u2013 great guiding can also make up for what could be a quiet game-viewing day.<\/p>\n<p>I also feel privileged in that I don\u2019t need to rush out to try to see the\u00a0<a title=\"Africa's Big Five\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/au\/inspiration\/wildlife\/africas-big-five\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Big Five<\/a>\u00a0and tick boxes. This is why, when I was sent out to Zimbabwe on a recent YZ work trip, I wasn\u2019t totally absorbed with the idea of heading out to try to spot a bull elephant who is known to go up on his back legs. People had told me that this is an impressive sight, but I knew I\u2019d still be very content with observing interesting behaviour from impala or perhaps admiring a strangler fig slowly taking over its host tree.<\/p>\n<p>That said, one day in\u00a0<a title=\"Mana Pools\" href=\"https:\/\/beta.yellowzebrasafaris.com\/au\/zimbabwe\/where-to-go\/mana-pools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mana Pools<\/a>, we did head out in the morning with the aim of spotting Zimbabwe\u2019s most famous bull elephant, Boswell. Our guide did a fantastic job of showing off his own interests when he spotted a bat hawk out of the corner of his eye. The passion he has for birding was clear, and we spent the next 20 minutes out of the vehicle positioning ourselves in the best position to take a good photograph of this very rare bird (which, admittedly, I did not know much about) while the rest of our group stayed on the vehicle wondering what all the fuss was about. They did, however, have a fantastic sighting of their own \u2013 a well-known Sky News TV reporter sitting on another vehicle and going the other way. I have luckily weaned myself off live TV news, and therefore wasn\u2019t too excited by him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"column--padded \">\n<div class=\"grid__container \">\n<div class=\"columns \">\n<div class=\"column is-offset-1 is-10\" data-gridtype=\"gridRichText\">\n<article class=\"wysiwyg base_padded content\">\n<div class=\"block is-size-5\">\n<p>After all of this divided excitement, we headed on to try to find this now-famous (thanks to YouTube) \u2018Iconic\u2019 bull of Mana Pools \u2013 and from chatting to another guide on the way, it seemed that he was in the area and we were on the right track. Boswell the bull is one of the best in the game at getting onto two sturdy back legs and reaching high up into the canopy. This isn\u2019t something that comes easily to a five-ton animal with a very forward centre of gravity. I was soon to see why Boswell\u2019s centre of gravity is so far forward \u2013 he has an outstanding pair of tusks.<\/p>\n<p>As we had an increased chance of success on our mission, I started to get excited about this potential sight (and excited that our marketing team might get a couple of good videos and pictures of it)! We pulled up and parked under a magnificent winterthorn tree. I was almost left behind by my fellow walkers as I was planted there, admiring the sheer beauty and character of just one tree. But it was time to walk out towards the depths of the park, continuing the search for Boswell.<\/p>\n<p>The scenery in this part of the world is simply superb \u2013 there are magnificent tall and characterful trees, dark mud-coloured soils, and lots of subtle yet also pronounced gullies and ridges. Without doubt, it\u2019s one of the most beautiful areas I have walked in. It feels almost primeval, although it\u2019s full of life.\u00a0Off in the distance, one of our group spotted a group of male elephants, and quite clearly leading the group was Boswell. I say leading, but they were basically milling around in a fairly open grove of winterthorn trees, the tree of choice for Boswell and his like when going up on their hind legs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-771591\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-spacer wak-pad-top-md

I had my camera ready, and then one of the younger bulls looked like he was ready to give it a go. He lifted one of his front legs off the ground and did a sort of tripod rear. It looked quite impressive, actually, and gave me a taste of what was to come.<\/p>\n<p>Boswell then moved forward, with some intention, towards a tree \u2013 and this was the moment we had been waiting for. It looked very much like he was going to show the other chaps how it\u2019s done!<\/p>\n<p>With much skill and grace, Boswell positioned himself under the overhang of a tall winterthorn (so-named because this tree retains its leaves in winter). He moved his centre of gravity backwards, reached up to the branch, front legs up in the air, and pulled it back down with him. This all occurred in about 5 seconds and was a movement full of skill and grace with a sprinkling of finesse. Wow! We were all over-excited, especially our guide \u2013 and I have to admit, it is one of my top animal sightings.<\/p>\n<p>The wonderful thing about this experience was how relaxed the group of elephants was, considering our close proximity, and how lucky we all were to be able to witness one of the last magnificent tuskers in this spectacular part of Africa and, importantly in this social media age, to get a video clip for Instagram!<\/p>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n\n<div\n    id=\"wak-acf-block-809463\"\n    class=\"wak-acf-block wak-acf-block-spacer wak-pad-top-md wak-pad-bot-md
