Cats have a mind of their own Glad though that yours came back!
And now for the bigger cats... the hunting leo must be number 10 then. Unbelievable!
I adore the shot of the squirrel. Very cute and a awesome posture considering how hyperactive those little critters are.

Re: The Great Escape
Yeah, this particular cat was a 'rescue cat' and has never really gone away from our house... always wants to be around us as much as she possibly can. Maybe she was missing us and went to try find usMel wrote: ↑Mon Aug 16, 2021 10:08 am Cats have a mind of their own Glad though that yours came back!

By this stage we had started making a list of our leopard sightings as we were losing count... this was number 11

Re: The Great Escape
I hope that your cat is sterilized, because if not, you will soon have lots of tiny kitties
I wonder how they manage to tag a martial eagle
Squirrel
Eleven leopards! That's indecent
You have a lovely family

Re: The Great Escape
Great shots again, Peej!
The Martials really take a toll on leguaans, seems to be a speciality!
Lovely baboon baby!
And another leppie...
Never seen that breakfast area in Croc, do they hire out skottels?

Re: The Great Escape
Thankfully no tiny kitties heading our way anytime soon
I'm not sure how the martial eagle tagging works either
Off to the side of the fuel station there's a picnic area. We had our own skottel with us, but it looks like they do hire there as well

Re: The Great Escape
Tuesday July 13th contd
From Crocodile Bridge we headed along the S25, reminiscing on our previous trip when Marloth Park came into view across the river. Shortly before the S108 we found some more spots
Despite only being metres away from us, this leopard had found a particularly dense bush to lie down and hide in
It was great having no other cars around, but she seemed to have no intention of looking our direction
We moved around trying to see what other view there might be of her, but the best we got was the odd eye or whisker
She got up to move just as another car finally pulled in, but unfortunately she just walked away from us giving very little view. We tried our best to explain to the people in the other car where she was and they seemed thrilled despite hardly getting a view of her.

Re: The Great Escape
Aha... 11 even before that. I had thought there was the same one in two different instalments. That's were my ten came from.
But now we're back on track. 12 it is then.
