Graham gave a loud whisper 'leopard' and there on the far bank was a leopard. He had probably walked right
through the parking area
All one could hear were cameras clicking away
When he disappeared into the grass we left and drove down towards the nursery in an effort to see him again but no luck.
On our way back this ellie had an inchy eye
Have a look at the muscles in this kudu's neck. He needs them to hold up that pair of horns
Then a road block while Mr ellie wandered down the road
We stopped at Sunset dam to watch a pied kingfisher with a fish he had caught. Unfortunately he flew
off before he swallowed it.
Back at Lower Sabie. A beautiful starling.
and a small elephant family in the river.
Later in the afternoon we again went to Sunset dam. There were plenty of cars there and we wondered what they were
looking at.
First up a pair of water thick-knees
Then we spotted the 2 young lions on the far side. At first the impala never saw them and were walking closer and closer
until one ram looked straight at the lion before taking off with the lions half heartedly giving chase.
Thirsty business chasing impala, but watch out for the crocodile
A young impala in the late afternoon light.
These young baboons were playing in the bushes next to the car.
and an even younger one casually riding on mum's back
This is what the sky looked like across the river. The fire had flared up again or been restarted. There was a sign up at
Lower Sabie to say this was an intentional fire. It certainly looked very dramatic.
We had dinner at the Mugg and Bean that evening. It was a very nice meal.
Fire at night is always beautiful but I couldn't help feeling sorry for the little creatures
There was a bit of a commotion in the far corner of the restaurant. Graham went to see and there was a small black mamba
curled up in the corner. A ranger had been called to move it. We had to make sure Cameron never went anywhere near
as he would have wanted to pick it up
