Lions for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner (October 2019)

[Mel]

At Polentswa there was a raptor party, but unfortunately most of them were about to leave when we arrived.
But at least two of the bateleurs stayed for some photos.

And to round off an action filled day, we had some very FAT lions visiting the waterhole on our first evening at Grootkolk.

What a day!!!

[Mel]

WoW Mel,

what an incredible start already especially with that caracal sighting

Pumbaa

It certainly was an excellent sighting day! Even the SO who is sitting next to me as I post
was taken aback by just how great that day was indeed

[Alf]

Wow what a start

[Sprocky]

Absolutely stunning, Mel!!

All those cat sightings, WOW!!!

[Richprins]

Incredible luck, Mello!

You could have slept for the rest of the trip after that start!

What is the story with the deadly water?

[Flutterby]

Four different cat species in one day....what an amazing first day Mel!!

[harrys]

Wow as you said "what a day", very nice sightings

[Lisbeth]

And that was only the first day

Caracal AWC and a gorgeous squirrel

Too sad about the elands

[PJL]

I'll try to share an acceptable amount of the almost 4000 pix I took on this trip.

I think at least 3000 is acceptable

Really great sightings on your first day Mel! What a lot of cats... the caracal would be my highlight I think
