A Leopard’s Tail: KTP April/May 2023

[GavinW]

Next up just after Kwang was this juvenile martial eagle. I don’t remember ever seeing as many martials as we did on this trip

At Bedinkt, this lilac breasted roller was showing off

[GavinW]

The jackals were out and about at Polentswa, but no hunting this morning

And we spotted this puff adder crossing the road

Brunch at Lijersdraai was great

[GavinW]

Joining us was this striped mouse.

And this agama

[Richprins]

What an interesting mix, Gavin!

From lion to mouse, you have a nice eye for the smaller things.

I like the reptiles, and Liejers looks very pleasant.

[Lisbeth]

Yes, lots of Martials, but mostly youngsters it seems

If only the mice had a hairy tail, they would be super cute

Nice agama

Lion Funny with lions in KTP, sometimes you almost fall over them and other times you don't even find them looking hard

[Mel]

No two visits are ever the same or at least very similar. Don't know what it is with that place
Sunrises are the best! I know exactly what you mean by "wondering what the day may bring"

Great agama shot

[GavinW]

After breakfast we decided to head back to Nossob

Polentswa was a lot busier on the way back

[GavinW]

And when we got to Kwang, this male lion was in the parking area at the waterhole

Probably the same chap we had seen earlier, but a whole lot closer now

[GavinW]

At Cubitjie Quap we had an unusual sighting of the juvenile Bateleur eagle sunning itself in the afternoon sun

One last pic of the Scops owl

The rest of the afternoon and evening, we spent in camp getting ready for our move to Two Rivers the next day
