We went along the mwagusi river, beautiful as usual. We got a bit of luck when Moses called us into a leopard sighting. We arrived there slowly slowly not to scare the cat, it was great.
The leopard was resting in a bed of grass, looking at us completely comfortable. The vervets were absolutely ballistic up on the sausage tree, they do not like leopards they cannot even stand the sight of the rosettes of it's coat. But I LOVE ROSETTES, one of the most beautiful patterns in nature.
A couple of lions sightings completed a good morning. The buffalo herd joined us for the afternoon drive and we spent a wonderful half an hour watching them crossing the river. The best thing was that we were in the middle of the river so not even a stem of grass was between us and 700 buffs. We watched and watched and watched them sowly and heavily walking in the sand.... wow!
We also got a new hyena's den with small small pups,they were suckling from mum and palying with each other all over the female body, they light was fading but we had more then enough time to enjoy this great show. The pups are so tiny, still black, no spots yet for the mini spotted hyenas.
