In the meantime I have let my mind wander to memories of my own trips to Africa and to think about some of the amusing creatures I've been lucky enough to observe. Now everyone talks about the "Big Five" (Lion, Rhino, Buffalo, Elephant, Leopard) - but to be honest I think it's some of the smaller animals that add true character to the bush!

One of my favourites are the Warthogs, they look so "chunky" but they are pretty fast when they need to be!
Anyway - back to the BIG FIVE - there is in fact another list of FIVE
It's the "SMALL FIVE"
I've got them together here so you can see - it's a bit of fun really!

I am sure Varun will be back with you tomorrow - Bye!
