Obviously someone else has been watching the Bond movies... :O^



Day 1 Part 2:





What first caught my attention was this thing in the riverbed:






Image







My first reaction was that it was a lion...then as baboons walked around it...maybe a massive sleeping baboon...

Later, maybe a huge dead Brown Hyena!






Image


:-?



Anyway, as O Fortuna politely pulled into our view, and the debate was continuing...

A leopard dashed from right to left accross the riverbed, very near to the closest bunch of baboons! :shock:

There was only one single bark from them, and they appeared utterly unperturbed! (Sprocky..unperturbed means unbothered)

Granted, it wasn't the biggest leopard, but still!? Are the Northern baboons getting soft? :evil:




Image




If you work for the CIA or FBI you can see the leopard walking around somewhere directly above the rear-view mirror! \O



The bigger baboons sauntered up slowly after the leopard...still no commotion whatsoever....and followed it into the Lala palms....


Eventually the troop made it's way off to the right-hand side...


Weird! -O-

Thanks for the info 001.

Luckily I'm shaken, not stirred. ;-)

Sorry RP but it is very difficult not to fall under the spell of the others. 0:

Its just that I am getting so anxious to know what was lying in the river bed that I cannot seem to control my fingers flying across my key board.

So, what was the big rock thingy lying in the riverbed?

Car mirror ID course required methinks. Or is this a case of sticking to the old and abandoning the new names again?

You would fail your driving test here by looking in that mirror after the instructor asked you to look into the rear view mirror. =O:

Offside wing mirror in future.

D- I'm afraid.
