Meanwhile the rain started to fall again slightly but on the other side of the bridge we discovered two pied kingfishers
waiting for something to catch. Nothing else was around so we continued our way and not far had to stop for a group of hyenas running on the road in the rain
and we even were allowed to take a couple of shots as it is normally not easy to capture these animals once in running mode.
From time to time they even stopped and sniffed a bit on the bushes along the road.
Normally we wanted to pay a final visit to Lower Sabie but as meanwhile the S28 was closed we were not that happy about driving all the way on the tar road so decided to drive back to Biyamiti although we had to omit a couple of roads we still wanted to drive but most likely same were closed anyway so we turned into the H5 and detected a Wahlberg in a tree.
From time to time the rain even stopped in alternation with slight rain so we were confident that at least no more torrential rain might come along. The Bume causeway even was far easier to cross than yesterday the water level meanwhile already decreased and not far we met another car out of which the driver told us about a leopard who just had crossed the street. They continued their drive and wished us luck and this time we even had luck as a beautiful leopard lady appeared suddenly at the only part along that road which was visible as the other parts were completely overgrown and the bushes far too dense.
She started to sniff on a branch and even paw on the ground and we were again over the moon with her presence
finally she even turned around and started to repeat the sniffing and pawing
and after a far too short time she walked out of sight but what a gift, nice and unexpected and this time I was also Timon thankful because he always insists to wait a while when we heard about a just crossed leopard because I am in that point always a bit too pessimistic.
