The Hippo and the Crane



Africa is always exciting! But sometimes it can be very funny.
I shot this sequence somewhere in Mana Pools on one of the side arms of the Zambezi River.
A Gray Crane makes himself comfortable on the back of a Hippo.
Another Hippo, quite evidently does not like this bold intruder.
He snaps at the Crane ... there is a turbulence of water spray. You may think that was the end of the Crane, even though Hippos are Vegetarians, but noooo... The Crane gets away with a scare
