Cats have a mind of their own :twisted: Glad though that yours came back!

And now for the bigger cats... the hunting leo must be number 10 then. lol Unbelievable!

I adore the shot of the squirrel. Very cute and a awesome posture considering how hyperactive those little critters are. lol

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 us -O-
By this stage we had started making a list of our leopard sightings as we were losing count... this was number 11 :shock: :shock: \O

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 \O

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 O/\ O/\

Image

Despite only being metres away from us, this leopard had found a particularly dense bush to lie down and hide in 0:

Image

It was great having no other cars around, but she seemed to have no intention of looking our direction :O^

Image

Image

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

Image

Image

Image

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. X#X
