On making my way back from a short fishing trip to the estuary, I came across this gentleman who was heading back to the water to cool down.
Hippos have extremely sensitive skins, they sunburn very easily and thus spend so much time in the water. This guy had been taking advantage of the cool morning and shade grazing before the sun became too much.
This is where you backtrack slowly but surely and make sure he has a clear line to the water.
