That chaos at lion sightings has actually totally put me off the South.
It's just not pleasant and not actually worth seeing the lions

Thanks Flutterby,
a lot of traffic on that bridge
For sure lions are always great to spot and finally also the cubs - They are extreme cute
Also love the hyenas and the impies

Ja, the chaos can be off-putting but we still love the area.

The next morning we left Lower Sabie for Satara. We headed towards Skukuza and then went up the H1-2. We decided to take the Maroela Loop and found a LIT with its kill.
However, it was far away so couldn't get great pics.
A tree full of African Green Pigeons.

Just after Tshokwane, we came across a very old or sick leopard.
The colouring looks like a cheetah but it was definitely a leopard as we had got a clearer view of it before it lay down flat.
A Little Bee-eater.
Closer to Satara, we found this ellie with some relatively nice-sized tusks.

Herds of everything also cars
Third leopard?
You don't see little bee-eaters very often
Nice pic of the buff and I love the pigeon tree

Great start to the day, Flutts!
1.5 leopards!
That Maroela Loop can also be hit and miss.
Green pigeons are one of my favourites!
And a tusker!
