On the way back, I find again the nest with the Barn Owl, a possible Steppe Buzzard at 2 m. As surprised as I was.

Image am I right with the ID :-? Image

The Vultures are still there, I look for the responsibles again.
Ah ! well, they're all lying under a big tree.
Fortunately they move a little bit, it is practically impossible to see them, it is Hanri and the gang, finally, I have been waiting for days to watch them O/\ O/\ O/\ O/\ O/\

I'll take you word for the cheetahs being under the tree lol I can't see a thing lol

I don't know for sure about the steppe buzzard. Haven't seen those too often in the KTP but I think your ID is correct. :-?

Lazy lions in the road again... Like there aren't enough trees and bushes along the riverbed 0- =O:

LIke the jackal shots \O Nice to watch them doing something else than polishing off carcasses lol


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.
