Face To Face

“There we were. Eye to eye, so close I could feel the steam coming out of his flared nostrils.” Sounds kind of like a Hemingway novel huh? “As I came through the tall grass up from the depths of the great river….there he was. The very creature that had eluded me for so long!”
The truth is, as I came down the gangplank the other day, there was a small herd of water buffaloes grazing on the river bank. This fearsome looking creature was really just a yearling calf. The males do get very large however. Some of them look to weigh 1500 lbs! I would probably walk way around a big one! Rick
