In the following a couple of pictures of a tusker we saw close to Palm Springs on the S39 on 19.02.2014.

Maybe this one is known to Aat already.

Thanks okie and Richprins 0/*

I know that Aat is in Kruger presently and maybe my map which I use here is a bit outdated but there was actually a waterhole on the S39 which is called Palm Springs - It is behind Piet Grobler when going Northwards....

Hi Pumbaa,

Looking at the tusks, the hole in the LH ear and the approx area convinces me that your photos are of Nsemani.

[ Compare your photos with Nsemani on Aat's TUSKERSOFAFRICA - do you agree ? ]

Gerrie.

No Problem Richprins O0

Hi 100ponder, after enlarging my pictures a bit more I am more than sure that we spotted Nsemani - Thanks for your help here O0

Another tusker sighting we had on the H1-6 between Letaba camp and the S95 turn off on 20.02.2014 - Unfortunately due to the heat and the distance the best shots we could get from him.
