    These are photos from our August 2016 trip (three nights in Satara).

    Playing hide and seek


    One tough customer


    We saw leopard 5 times (one was too fast to snap):

    This guy was on the hunt


    Posing like a mofo


    Sleeping in a tree


    We were last to arrive and she walked past right in front of our car


    Some lions we saw





    She was on her last legs



    Yaaaaaaaawn


    Groupies


    Only one (possibly a second) of these in Kruger


    Those eyes bore into your soul


    Kudu genetics in Kruger is fantastic:

    He was so rough some of those bushes got stuck


    Just check those horns standing out un the background





    Special one for Toxxyc

    maybe my last hunting trip was too fresh in my mind. but all i could see was shot placement and horns on the antelope.

    You want pic heavy? I can give you pic heavy :-)

    ["You have included a total of 37 images in your message. The maximum number that you may include is 30. Please correct the problem and then continue again"]. Hmmm. Thwarted by the machine. OK, slightly less pic heavy then.

    December 2015:









    This fellow was somewhat far away.



    This one was closer.



    We were the first to spot this one.







































    Then 2016:



    Idiot.

    More on my blog, of course :)

    Edit to add: some of these were with my Panasonic FZ-20, others are the wife's, with her Canon EOS-1100 and the kit lenses (including the crappy 300mm zoom). But her birthday rolled around and she now has a Sigma 600mm. And of course she wants to go to the Kruger again.
