Most of the watering holes at the park are supplied water from Wells. The pumps are powered by solar panels.

These Elephants at a watering hole were within sight of the Lions and the juvenile Elephant they had killed.
LION EATING ELEPHANT KILL, HWANGE NATIONAL PARK, ZIMBABWE
In a previous post we saw the Lions guarding the juvenile Elephant they had killed. That was in the morning. We came back in the afternoon and one of the female Lions was eating the elephant. In the second photo you can see a vulture waiting in the wings for the Lions to finish and leave.

AFRICAN CUCKOO, HWANGE NATIONAL PARK, ZIMBABWE
Even though we can't see the front of this bird and it was taken at a distance, we can ID it as an African Cuckoo by its overall gray color, black tail where you can see some of the barring and a black bill where you csn just make out the yellow base.
The African Cuckoo is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 449.
