Tourists - what a bore!

We went for a sunset drive and this beautiful animal was in the river bed (Kruger Park). He had already caught his supper and stashed in a tree. As he came up from the river he lingered long enough for me to capture a few hasty shots (and a yawn). He then proceeded to climb the tree and settled down for supper. Exciting moment cos we were on open 4 x 4 rather than in our own car - I could almost touch him. I got reprimanded for leaning over the side with my camera! Suppose my arm could have been a tempting morsel. I was about 6 feet away from him.
