Stunning pics BluTuna ^Q^ ^Q^

The cuckoo is the best, but then the creepies are also great - love all the colours. ^Q^ ^Q^

And an unusual view of a leopard - you must have been almost directly below him O/\ O/\

You must have taken a very close look at the tree to be able to see the leopard ;-)

Lovely creatures with transparent wings \O 0()

Any Leopard sighting is a good sighting! We especially enjoyed the LILT!

Thanks Pooky! We were almost below him. We were under the tree when I saw a single spotty leg, then he got interested and looked down at us.
