Katy,
Your leopard pictures are wonderful WONDERful WONDERFUL :clap: :clap: :clap:
Perfect!
And the video is great too.
You had sooooooo much luck to have such a looooooooooong leopard sighting. That is so special.

The picture of the drinking leopard and the one where it stands on top of the dune are my favourites.
Stunning! :thumbs_up:

And all that at the beginning of your trip!
The rest must have been very boring :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

Please post more.
Nina

Thank you!

@ Elsa
Well, we couldn’t complain… :whistle:

@ Melph68
Yes, we had been very lucky to check the waterhole, after all the others had left.. :dance:

@ Nina!
We thought after such a magnificent Leopard sighting, that this might be the only Leopard sighting that we are going to have on this years trip, but…..
I guess you have to be as patient as us :wink:
