Nice sable sighting with a very handsome bull
Lovely pic of the giraffe drinking
All those leopards are getting embarrassing
The noisy neighbours were most likely guests, if not they would have started again after a while

Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Plenty lion, an indecent amount of leopards , cheetah and sable!! You guys really had lady luck on your side!!
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Thanks Pumbaa Yes, lucky this trip with leopard, no massive days with 6 or 7 leopard in the day like some other trips, but in the last 26 trips of around 8/9 days we have only got more twice, so it was a cool trip for me
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Thanks Harry and thanks for your support for those who don't wear shoes
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
The pics are a team event leachy I have a 550D and an old Sigma 150-500mm and the clan all have point and shoot cameras. We synchronize date and time on all as we enter the park, I dump all in folders per date and I have freeware that sorts them into the time the pic was taken so all flow in sequence irrespective of which camera took the pic, then I sort and delete until the best remain. I only keep around 2 or 3 pics of each animal, unless it's a leopard so only the best of what we as a team can produce survives

Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Ja, those sable are locals there now, so local it's not even a rare sighting at the moment, we drove off once also because it was too much of a mission to take a pic through the grass My opinion, it's the southern S36 locals and their normal area is a little dry in the water and chow department and in a few months we will be battling to find them againRichprins wrote: ↑Tue Oct 30, 2018 7:38 am Sable too!
They seem to be hanging around that area indefinitely for now.
What did the manager say about the overcrowding at the Moffat, BC?
The leopard may have been quite full..
I assume the people making a noise weren't Afrikaans, or you would have led with that?
It hasn't been Moffat for many years, it's 2 x BD2's joined in that area now, well it looked like BD2's and the updated map indicates the same. I didn't report to management, if they were Afrikaans I would have, because I wouldn't be going out in my "sleeping shorts" with a torch, I would need something a lot stronger than a torch if I was going to make it back alive
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Thanks Alf Ja, sighting wise the south is better IMO, but I hate crowds and traffic Where can I see the most leopard …….eish
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Thanks once again Lisbeth
The leopard will continue
Yes, I agree, guests not staff
Re: Browns in Kruger October 2018
Thanks Peter I'm embarrassed to have you say that because we actually just take a chance and lack the photographic knowledge and understanding that you guys have
