In one of the two loops of Lijesdraai I discover a large den ... I wait a little bit, but nobody shows up, nor Safran.
I learn that Cheetahs were seen at Union End ... caramba O/ still missed :-(

There are plenty of vultures around a carcass, obviously is a Lion's kill based on the length of the chops, it's a large mammal ;-)

The cleaners ... there is no leftover in the desert \O

3rd periode - 1st au 8th february 2017 - Nossob – Urikaruus

Back to Nossob where I will spend 2 nights. I meet a "Vaudoise" (my canton in Switzerland) who goes alone to Botswana, in the north ... to mosquitoes land like she said... the next day.
We decide to eat together. Rack of lamb and mashed potato ... of the Migros =O: Very nice encounter ... that the world is small, sometime.
Wonderful and sparkling young woman, and funny what does not spoil anything ... she even wanted to adopt me 0- =O:
We heard roar, we rush to the hide, they do not come from there, we separate before the extinction of the fires, I still do not like the night.
