Amoli, I can't realy "see" where is this tree :-? memory :twisted:
I know another one in the middle of the road (don't remember where lol )
and I was often on these roads... in search of Cheetahs and why not Duke ;-)
I know which tree and road you are talking about Nan - it has been shown here on the forum before,

and I truely through it was this tree. I drove this rode 2 weeks ago - this is about half way up the S130 before Dukes turn-off. \O

I was driving very slowly and putting all effort in to see all there was to see on this loop.

It was very quiet and peaceful when I picked up a movement in the grass - a lioness. I was taking pictures while idling along with her.
All of a sudden I was surrounded with lions, they appeared to be returning from a chase - 15 lovely lions.
