Well, you will have to spend every free minute in the park in due time to find those cubs.

Re: Addo Outings
I took a trip into the park again yesterday, hoping that I might find Gina and news on the possibility of cubs. She was in hiding the whole day, but the staff in the park who I talked to all agree that she has had cubs. She must be hiding them really well... let's hope they survive the perils of a new-born lion cub 
Of course, I was also very keen to test out some new camera gear, which I was very pleased with. Here are some of the bird shots from the day.

Glossy Starling
Burchell's Coucal ducking and diving
Kibo the Brown Hooded Kingfisher
Eyes on the prize

Super birds and equally super news on Gina!
Curious how many she gave birth to.
Hope Gina will be good to you and show her offspring to you soon.

Re: Addo Outings
Thanks everyone 
Although we didn't find Gina, I have seen photos from some people who saw her yesterday and it does look like she's still nursing so there's a good chance of the cubs appearing soon
We did however get treated to a visit from Roy. I'm not sure where his partner-in-crime Nomad had disappeared to, as he was on his own. He seemed to enjoy our company which was nice
The stare
Quick stop to check who else had been that way
On the prowl

Roy is a great looking lion
