Cubitjie Quap, (must try remember all the names) is jackal central.

Every morning you have the choice of sitting and watching jackals making kills or getting rid of an itch to see what is further north.

The sangrouse were getting nailed just as they put down their landing gear, whereas the doves seemed to be stalked whilst they were drinking.

Image
An easy kill, dove fell in the trough at Nossob 0*\

Practice makes perfect

Felt a bit self conscious at the water hole with my small lens, but I had a cruiser to compensate.. =O:

Cubitjie also had this youngster and his mom visit a few times.

Picked up a cheetah with two youngters just north of Kwang too.

Image

Kwang had lion on most days I was there.
My superior tracking skills alerted me to their presence =O:

The two males that lazed around Kwang were beautiful.

They were walking around the bakkie etc, was bliss.

The wives were also around most days
