That frog you posted some pages ago, looks quite comfortable with you being around.
Almost as if it was your pet and trusted you not to do any harm to it
Love that panoramic shot! Beautiful colours and even the moon in it
Icing on the cake is the cheetah. Nothing can beat seeing spots

Well done, Flutts!
Nice pics, and lovely lion sighting!
Thank you for educating the rich people about our lifestyle!
Nice lion, hey!
Ja, these rich people don't know the real Kruger!

I have never been lucky enough to see a cheetah in KNP
The bush looks very green and impenetrable
You just have to keep trying Lis.
The bush was very thick.

Never seen cheetah that side
Thanks Twigga.

Love your antelope shots from the previous post, Flutterby,
and for sure the cheetah was a more than fantastic welcome gift into Kruger
Thanks Pumbaa.
The cheetah was very unexpected and welcome!

The frog was very calm and let us move him out of the braai with no fuss.
Yep, nothing beats spots.

We carried on to Letaba, not seeing much except for the occasional ellie.
At Letaba we had to get the obligatory ellie statue pic and the kids.
The Brat and I enjoying the view.
The Letaba River
Some waterbuck in the river.
A Fish Eagle somewhere between Letaba and Olifants.

Nice fish-eagle pic
Did I know that you smoke
and the brat too
I have been a witness to the damages that it can do in the long run
(Sorry, not really by business
but ........)

You're right Lis, it's a horrible habit.
Thankfully the Brat has not picked it up.
Thanks nan.

A great view you had, Flutterby,
the Letaba riverbed is looking extreme green
- Amazing

Oh, I love that fish eagle
And those traditions where you take photos of the kids in the same spot and see them grow over the years

It's always nice to sit at the fence at Letaba and enjoy the view.
