Quasi all days out on safari on our reserve are really fun and interesting, and one sees all sorts of game all the time, and we spot 1-2 of the Big5 every day as well. But some days just somehow stand out, and yesterday was one of those days.
First our ranger found a magnificent bull elephant, roaming the reserve on his own, happily munching away at the (now) lush vegetation, he was visibly enjoying it. Our guests really enjoyed getting such an amazing up-close sighting of one of the very largest mammals (in fact the largest on land) on earth. Great photos, great memories.
Such an outstanding sighting alone is worth a day’s safari, of course, but the evening safari had a sweet dessert prepared for our guests: an amazing up-close leopard sighting, and this was a VERY relaxed leopard. Uyai also managed some very nice footage.
Enough said, here the shots. Fantastic!
And here the video! Well done.
