After the wild cat, the only thing of interest which we spotted on the way back to camp was this spotted eagle owl perched regally in a tree
It was really nice to get back to camp and light our first braai of the trip.

The Kgalagadi always delivers, but in different ways
After the rush of yesterday, arriving, cheetah and wild cat sightings as well as our first evening in the park, today turned out to be slightly different
