She continued towards the road, showing off as only a young leopardess can

She proceeded to sharpen her claws on a nearby tree
Before wondering around the cars at the sighting
And then disappearing into the grass and over the far ridge

Gorid's behaviour is something to observe and to be cautious of. She's way to familiar with human beings and I really, really hope that that won't be her fate one day. She's so pretty and obviously one manages to get great pix of her with her not being shy at all.
Btw, your camp set up looks very professional

Mel, I can only agree with you. While we were there she visited the ladies loo at Melkvlei which caused a bit of excitement
Thank you everyone for all the comments.
Yes it was a really special sighting, but we have more of her a bit later
After the excitement of seeing the leopard so up and personal, we were on a high as we carried on to Melkvlei for a much needed cup of coffee and a comfort stop.
After our break we carried on north up the Nossob
5km after Melkvlei we spotted two young male lions in the riverbed on the right.
The one was further away, sleeping in the riverbed,
Whilst his companion was much closer and a bit more active.
