Nkorho Bush Lodge Waterhole - Sabi Sand, South Africa

At Nkorho Bush Lodge in South Africa's Sabi Sand Game Reserve, next door to Kruger National Park, a quiet pool in the bush becomes a stage for some of the continent's biggest animals.

Elephant herds are frequent visitors, often wading in with tiny calves to drink and splash, while buffalo, giraffes, zebras and impala come and go through the day, taking turns at the water.

On calm mornings the still water reflects them perfectly. After dark the mood changes. Lions, leopards and hyenas are more active at night, so the evening view can be every bit as exciting as the daytime one.

Did You Know? An adult elephant can drink up to 50 gallons (about 200 liters) of water in a single day, sucking up around 2 gallons at a time with its trunk.
