These 2 beauties we called the Sisterhood and we saw them often in our 18 day stay at R Puts ..Here in the open riverbed they picked up a herd of Gemsbok at least 1.5 kms ahead and started a careful and considered approach using the dappled shadows of sunrise as PERFECT cover ..who needs Kruger Bush ..Here they are at the 150 metre mark estimated ..just before the Gemsbok got a whiff and ran into Botswana ..Please click me

Cant believe this is Rooiputs last April where we had a cloudburst through the night.. That is the LAST time it has rained there 11 months ago ..It will be a dust bath instead next month when we go ..PIC needs a click to get the sunrise properly on the 2 Cheetah cubs 100 metres from Rooiputs entrance ...Another low mileage game drive
