WEDNESDAY 11 OCTOBER 2017 PART 1/4.
This morning we headed for you know where to see if Kgodisa was around.
No matter how hard we tried to spot her she was not showing off today.
We moved on down to Hippo Loop.
Black-shouldered Kite.
Moved on to Pilanesberg Centre for Breakfast and saw this Go-Away Bird in flight.
And Big Ears.
We decided to go down to Ruighoek Dam.
This pleasant scene on our way down.
A little further on a kind gent stopped and told us that there were two cheetah under a tree on Motlobo Drive. We turned off Tlou Drive and after a short while came across these two under a tree.
They were not very active but we saw a third one lying under a tree about 100 metres from where these two were.
We were told by a guide that these three were Rains latest litter whereas the other three we saw up at Hippo Loop were her first litter.
One sat up before walking off to the toilet and coming back to lie down.
To be continued.

WEDNESDAY 11 OCTOBER 2017 PART 2/4.
As these cheetah had no intention of going anywhere we moved on down to Ruighoek Dam.
Lazy hippo family.
Citrus Swallowtail.
Double vision.
On the way back we popped to see if the cheetah were still lazing around.
Still going nowhere.
Give way to an elephant family crossing the road.
