He was true to his word.

We were not sure if they were the same two cheetah which we had seen the day before.
I was sceptical as these two were a male and a smaller female, whilst those yesterday appeared to be two males, although they were really far away so I wasn’t sure.

We sat with them for a while, but they were fast asleep, so we returned to camp for a break After a relaxing nap and shower, it was about 5 pm when we returned to the couple

They hadn’t moved

Image

We spent about two hours with them, and after awhile, they decided to move onto the road

Whilst on the road, they flirted with the cars around them

Before giving us our own private sighting once the rif raf had left to return to Twee Rivieren

We had them on our own for about 20 minutes before we too needed to return to camp

Image

The lighting at the sighting was at it’s best, and the subjects were not too shabby either O\/ O/\

The cheetah eventually moved over the road
