The "take off" pic is great though 
What a fantastic leopard sighting you were rewarded with and simply love the AWC shot now from inside camp 
We saw Casper and one of the brothers in August.Bushcraft wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 12:30 pm
All 4 of these lions are getting on in years and I have since heard that 2 of them, Casanova & Mfowethu have tested positive for TB, so their condition is deteriorating rapidly, but Casper & Footloose results came back negative, however for how long that will remain the case is anyone’s guess, so there may be some new male lions taking over the Satara area in the near future.

Ja, you have slowed down a bit!
Wow, a constant lion/hyena/leopard/jackal/AWC frenzy!
It is nice walking around Satara as the veld is so open outside!
Love the hyena with the SANParks embelm, those horns are HEAVY!
Nice pic of you guys at Orpen Dam and Nwanetsi.
That looks like a huge elephant indeed!
(Let's not debate spelling...)
But on the weekend 
I actually thought that I had captured perfect pics of the entire leopard jump sequence, so my teeth were hanging out at the time, but that changed once I dumped the pics from camera. It's still a sore point as it was a prefect opportunity
I tried the automatic camera story, but the focus points go crazy and the camera thinks that I'm trying to take a pic of a bush rather than the leopard in the bush, so I duff even more pics when using autoLisbeth wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2024 11:36 am TB or no TB, Casper does look old
Put the camera on "Automatic". The photos might not come out perfect, but at least they come out
I have seen a kitty drinking, but in KTP not in KNP and it was dark and you can only see that it's a wild cat if you know it
Now the speed is OK
I'm never sure which way round to do the S100/S41/H6 loop, but I'm not a major fan of the H6, so prefer to get it out the way and spend the later/better hour/s on the S41/S100. It's a dust storm into the setting sun when returning to camp on the S100 though.Pumbaa wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2024 10:37 pm Thanks so much, Bushcraft,
what a great afternoon / evening drive - We do same normally the other way round in the morning but that sounds also like an option for an earlier afternoon drive during our next trip
A pity that Sweni was empty but must say in February same was not having that much water anymore than in previous years

The brother was limping quite badly and Casper looks quite beat up.
Not nice to see these majestic animals in this state
