Thank you all very much again for the comments. Unfortunately no cat sightings for me this week.

This weekend has been crazy weather wise, yesterday we hit 41C and today we hardly reach 20C. 0- Due to this, no real wow sightings.

The first batch of pics are to do with antelope horns. First up, the same Unikudu that has made himself at home around the house...

This Steenbok could almost class as a bull and not a ram, with the length of its horns... :shock:
