Wow stunning pics of the Leopard .

That Hyhena looks very well fed .
We actually chose LS over CB this last trip specifically for the use of the pool and only ever used it once .Next time will go back to CB on our exit days ...
I think we have taken pics twice of that tree but never had any Vultures on it it definately adds an air of doom to the view ...
Glad you ID the Dwarf Bittern .It confirmed my ID from pics I am going to post and trying to lean from Lisbeths schooling .

Regarding the washing.........I am curious to know what on earth they are doing

I think they are sandbags, they're probably trying to stop the erosion of the river bank near the weir.

Our first and only Leopard on the trip. He was pretty close but it helps to have a big telephoto lens.

I like LS because there are plenty drive choices but I don't much like the campsite there. We have often stayed there in a hut on our last night in order to exit the park easily but that's not going to happen now that we have the trailer. I enjoyed CB except for the last night when some idiot parked their trailer tent about 3 feet from us. Luckily they weren't noisy!
Glad you like the tree pic
Thanks for commenting.

Definitely not the first Squacco we've seen in the Park but the first I've photographed.
Ahhh, Leopards, stunning cats and always a pleasure to see. Can never see too many of them.
