Waterbuck and her newborn baby

Africam, Elephant plains cam,

Yesterday evening we have seen an ewe that she left behind while all the rest waterbucks moved away of the waterhole ..I was wondering about it ..but this noon when I opened the cam I found the reason she stayed behind ...She had her baby into the long grass very close to the waterhole ...Such a lovely creature ...such a nice baby ...She was cleaning it thoroughly to avoid odors that can attract predators as always mothers do after the birth of their babies ...Good luck to the cute baby and the proud mother ..It was one of the best sightings I had on cams ..maybe the best for this year ...
