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

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

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,

Image

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

Image

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

Image

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

Image

Image

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

Image

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

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

Image

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

Image

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

Image

nearly each car waited patiently and was finally rewarded

Image

with more than many shots of

Image

a beautiful leopard lady and her kill.

Image

to be continued.....
