Kruger was just incredible this time. We saw the Big Five in a single day again, and had more lion and leopard sightings than we could have hoped for. We saw a serval, were pestered nightly by a honey badger (don’t care!) and even saw two of the deadliest snakes in Africa (eek!)
Here is a photo of a leopard we spotted during our night game drive from Tamboti Bushcamp (near Orpen):
Special thanks for today’s post to my husband, Kurt, who told me to stop taking photos and start taking video during a night drive when we saw a leopard. The video came out much better than the photos, so I’m sharing that with you now.
Please forgive the audio. We went on our game drive with an older lady who, while quite nice, seemed to prefer her own leopard stories to an actual leopard in front of us. {sigh}
In fact, I recommend you just turn your audio off/mute and enjoy just watching.
Love, Marla
Wonderful sighting Marla – we’re looking forward to more!
They are just incredible, aren’t they? I try not to think about the fact that we’re only temporary residents here and just appreciate we get to see it at all. <3
I'm glad you're enjoying it. I just want to share everything!
That is simply the coolest of all. I love big cats. I live vicariously through you!
