The red-billed queleas had been unleashed

Love the pics of the hyena and impala.

Spots! Even a headless one is better than none.

[Bushcraft]

A leopard of any type scores big in my book

[Lisbeth]

All the birds are great, especially the owlet

I am sure that the leopard is going to show itself

[Ratel]

LEOPARD!!!

You guys are fantastically patient so I am sure you got a better look at her eventually.


Oh yeah, love the Pearlie and other birds, Baboons and the Hyenas too, but LEOPARD!!!

Yes, a great postcard pic the hyena with the impies in the background!

Everyone seeing those sandgrouse...I even saw them this month!

Good shots, Pumbaa!

The weaver w/ the yummy treats for its tots, the Pygmy Kingfisher, and the Owlet are simply superb

Any one of them would have made my day. Thank you for sharing such treasures

Thanks so much Flutterby, Bushcraft, Lisbeth, Ratel, nan, Richprins and ExFmem for your amazing comments - Really do love them

After a while still no movement from our spotted beauty and we noticed a great number of white backed vultures already to gang up in some of the nearby trees,



however, we also still had to keep her in sight as sometimes she lifted her head behind the branches and leaves



and we keep on waiting and waiting and hoped that she might pay her kill a visit – This was how the tree looked like.



After 3 hours (!) she finally stood up and walked to her kill





and you could hear from everything all the camera buttons from all the people who meanwhile arrived at that sighting



and although we already thought to move to another spot from where she might be better to be seen we finally were happy that we stayed where we parked as now we had the pool position

[Pumbaa]

and Timon snapped more than happily away whilst she started to feed



and gladly from time to time she looked around obviously thinking what a bustle around me



but we were not the only ones who stayed at that sighting that long



nearly each car waited patiently and was finally rewarded



with more than many shots of



a beautiful leopard lady and her kill.
