Two with a kill. :shock: :shock:

Is the bird not a Didericks Cuckoo?

Brilliant photos of it as they do not normally like posing for photos.
Thanks STF \O Yip, lucky again with the leopard 0: I'm sure it's a Klass Cuckoo :-?

It's not normal to see so many leopards in just a few hours :O^

Are you showing us leopard pictures from previous trips lol lol
=O: =O: Alf, it's no jippo. Sometimes you can hit a luck, our best is 7 leopard in a day in July 2014 (check out that day (15th) in the TT --00-- ), but a few times 5 & 6. All one can do is drive the correct area for what one is looking for and then the rest is luck.

I don't delete the EXIF picture data, so you can save those leopard pics to your PC and explore the EXIF data which will indicate date and time of when the pics were taken :twisted:

Still doing the "ketchup" on page 12

All this cat sightings & the kill!!! WOWI!!! on which road was that again?

We were planning to go to Talamats in January, I don't think so ! Not with that expensive construction site

You need to write a book

"Spotting" for dummies

All that spots O\/ O\/ O\/ ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^
Howzit Twigga 0/* Where have you been :-? Ja, that Talamati construction is an issue, but it may be better once done -O- The number of eyes and keen rats does help. Soon Hawkeyes will have her learners license and then I'm just going to park off and wait for them to find something of interest =O: =O:

Luck comes and goes Flutts, but September and October in the south is very good for leopard. I prefer September for them, but can't go due to the rats and school O/

The Cow took the cuckoo pic \O
