Every move a leopard makes and every posture it shows has the overtones of stealth.
Here, the leopard was walking up in our general direction, and had a wide open path that must have been at least ten feet wide.
And yet, it walks right next to some shrubs to one side of the path, and uses camouflage right up until the end.
You can also see the slight crouch in its posture, just as it emerges from behind its cover into a more open area.
Really amazing to see it, especially when you are looking for it!
This shot was a gift! It is one of my favorite shots of this highly elusive and hard to find animal.

These are the paws of the North Chinese leopard at the zoo at Karlsruhe, Germany. All four of them. :)
The capture was taken through a fence.
Such a sight to see--- this leopard was in a tree with its kill, having its dinner. The raw power of the cat, and the sheer beauty of his grace and strength were a sight to behold.
We watched in awe for nearly an hour as it dined rather obscured by the leafy branches, and then came out on a branch to clean its whiskers and lounge in the setting sun.
The camera GPS and this photo map says we were in Tanzania for this shot, but we must have been just on the border in the Masai Mara of Kenya, because we hadn't crossed the river into Tanzania yet.
More photos to come! Here is my African safari album link
Leopard (Phalanta phalantha) (මහ දිවිපුල්ලියා) is a medium-sized butterfly with a wingspan of 50–55 mm with a tawny colour and marked with black spots. The underside of the butterfly is more glossy than the upper and both the male and female are similar looking. A migratory butterfly and is found all over Sri Lanka, belongs to Nymphalidae family.
South Luangwa is not as widely-known as the likes of Kruger or Etosha, nor is it as accessible, taking two days of travelling from North Wales but it certainly lived up to its nickname of the "Valley of the leopards."

This is a picture of sheer anticipation. He was patiently waiting until the female let him... have his wicked ways with her. And... his patience got rewarded! Good for him!
Peter has been to South Africa 5 times and I have been 3 times and this is the first time that we have seen the elusive Leopard.
We were driving through Kruger on our way to meet up with my Flickr friend Piet when we came across a car parked in the middle of the road. When we edged around the side of the car I saw a spotted tail and realised it was a Leopard. It sat there for quite a while staring into the undergrowth and I realised that it was stalking some Impala. It went to the side of the road and the Impala became nervous, so it sat up still watching intently. We didn't have time to wait to see if it continued to stalk the Impala as it was a long drive to Satara Rest Camp.
This time in 9 days I had only 1 leopard sighting but it was a beautiful young leopard with an impala kill hidden in the grass just next to the road. She(?) was a bit shy and after a few more cars stopped it became too busy. The leopard disappeared in the long grass to wait for the evening probably to finish her(?) meal.
Taken in Okonjima Reserve Namibia on the way to Etosha National Park.
