On Thursday morning after a quiet first hour of the day in the park, we decided to stop quickly for a toilet break at Masorini. As soon as we left our car and I turned around I saw a Leopard on the concrete of the male toilet facility. Leopard I (almost) screamed to Corina. Where she asked. At the toilets I said. By then the Leopard disappeared behind the facility. One split second I thought of walking in that direction with my camera, but I realized that was probably not the smartest thing to do. In the car, I (almost) yelled to Corina. When I turned the car the lady Leopard just came from the back side of the male facility and moved on, ignoring us totally, towards the main road. She crossed the road and, after careful scanning the surroundings, went to the waterhole to have drink. Later on she went in the direction of the tank and road again.
Needles to say that I was happy that the female decided to show herself before I went to the toilet ......

We "tried" to visit there this weekend but took the wrong turn. On my map it looks like it's on the Masorini Loop but it's actually on the main road so we missed it.

I've had a look at quite a few pics of this leopard now. It does not look normal at all!
