Persistence and patience ^Q^ ^Q^ Not always easy during game watching as something might be hiding around the next corner lol

Was it the last of the three cubs that I had seen in Nov. 2017 or was this another year? Elena was such a great mother and had a lot of litters if I do not error.

No, those were much later. This one was about two litters earlier. The three that you (and me also) saw was the very last litter. Elena disappeared shortly after them dispersing from her and wasn't seen ever since :-(

Eight and ninth night @ - Urikaruus Riverfront

Somehow I got past posting yesterday. But the photo I had chosen was just another memory and a retrospection for those who have stayed in cabin number one... The view :-0 :-0 :-0

Corinne did, yes. But by now she's old enough herself that she'll vanish relatively soon too. :-(
But hopefully she will have another set of cubs before that happens.

Garfunkel was shot outside the park when he raided some farm animals...

Simon was seen after dispersing from mum, but not for long. Last time was down at Samevloeiing
and he might have moved to Bots. At least that's what I hope has happened.

You always get insects, but after the rains there is a significant increase. Also, the screen doors may help to keep the bats out lol
