We had already seen one a few days earlier Bokkie. Hate to sound blase, but it wouldn't have been such a beeg thing anymore

Amoli wrote: A LIT

Once again sounds blase but we had seen a few of those. We were blessed enough to have had no less than 5 spotted cat sightings of which two were LIT

Now this would have been beeeger than a beeg corn bite. It would have been absatively posolutely mind blowing. Alas, this was not the case.

Something I really wanted to see. I have been blessed enough to have seen them twice in paradise already. (On previous trips.)

It will be revealed soon. Very soon.

Finally another stationary animal pic I can see! The swan with the hairdo!

I mark according to content, language and structure...with originality being a major element! So far you are doing brilliantly regarding the last three!

Your closing paragraph may be the clincher!


BTW, short-term memory goes first...so don't worry!

Ok, so back to the main event (after having detoured various threads around the forum).

We were informed that a cat had been seen and had moved behind a large termite hill. The peeps had subsequently lost sight of it and were patiently waiting for it to show itself. Hunny scanned the area with the binocs and I used the old peepers. I edged the car forward slower than I think it has ever gone before. Approximately 5 minutes later, I spotted the cat walking in the bushes.

Hunny had to operate the camera (which didn't fill me with any great degree of confidence that I would ever see the cat in digital format. Long story which will be explained when I get back to my June travel tail.) I followed him with my eyes and went forward faster since kitty had managed to open up a bit of a gap on where everyone was looking and were parked. I was the only one on the move. I think someone saw me pointing out kitty to Hunny and they got moving too.

We got some shots of a very far of kitty cat but I had finally, after almost 30 years of on and off KNP visits, captured this one on film. It was only my second ever sighting of one.

After years of searching, I had finally found my second CHEETAH.

WOW fantastic bud, they always such a special sighting Bud

It sure was and Hunny was the most exited I had ever seen her.

Here is the evidence. I have to appologise for the quality.
