Re: A Spotty Flutter
Aha, off we go!
As harry says, you had a Bushcraft leopard trip!
And 3 of the big 5 plus hyena sommer in the first morning, Flutts!
It was dry, hey?

Re: A Spotty Flutter
Hi Lis, that photo was taken on the H4-1 between Skukuza and Lower Sabie.
Thanks Harry.
We had actually seen the Big 5 by the time we got to Lower Sabie. It was very dry!

Re: A Spotty Flutter
We checked in at Lower Sabie and enjoyed the view from our tent for a while.
This Natal Spurfowl was having a dust bath nearby.
For our afternoon drive we just headed down the H4-1 and back again.
A big croc at Sunset Dam.
H4-1 sky.

Re: A Spotty Flutter
On the way back, when it was quite dark already, we found 3 cubs in thick bush, but only managed these two bad pics.

Re: A Spotty Flutter
What an astounding view from the tent, Flutts!
Must get there!
And Brat looks pensive indeed, as one always does watching the fire...
More lions!

Every single herd of elephants we saw had some tiny babies.
Even the small family groups of 5 or 6 cows had assorted sized youngsters plus one or two new borns
As discussed elsewhere on the Forum, there is an elephant population problem
