This is another view of the first leopard we saw in Motswari.
We had an excellant day in the park today - 4 leopard sightings.I will have to add photos later.
Leopard Seals are one of the most formidable predators in Antarctica though they don't look quite so scary when they are resting on the ice. Though it is probably sleeping off a feast of penguins. Their favourite food is penguins but they also eat other seals, squid, and even tiny krill. They have been known to attack humans, including Shackleton's team, though there has only been one recorded fatality. They are not particularly common and one of my friends worked for a year in Antarctica and never saw one. I liked the way that this one was looking straight at me with knowing smile.

Shot in Sabi Sands Game Reserve South Africa. Not really a fight, since Thandi on the right is the mother of Maribye on the left - unfortunately, he is becoming amorous, and she is advising him of the inappropriateness of that! Sony A9 FE 70-200 at 70mm f3.5 edited in Silver Efex Pro.
In het Sabi Sands ook wel de bakermat van alle safari's genoemd hebben we deze prachtige luipaarden mogen bewonderen. Schitterend om ze van zo dichtbij te mogen fotograferen.
The photo was taken in Kruger NP, at approx. 120 meters distance. Had spotted some very vigilant empals who were all looking in the same direction. Thought something might happen soon when a leopard and a hyena suddenly appeared
Quiliann ,now much bigger than mum still likes to be with her. He is 17 months old now and will soon be departing for pasteurs new to start his own family.

Aufnahme aus dem Zoo Münster
Ich zeige noch ein Foto dieser wunderschönen Raubkatze. Wurden sie viele Jahre in zwei kleinen Gehegen mit dicken Metallstäben gehalten, präsentiert der Zoo Münster sie jetzt in zwei neuen Gehegen mit wesentlich artgerechteren Bedingungen. So haben sie jetzt die Möglichkeit, sich in einen Baumwipfel zurückzuziehen. Auch die Größe des Geheges hat deutlich dazu gewonnen. Es bleibt ein Leben in Gefangenschaft mit allen Vor- und Nachteilen gegenüber den frei lebenden Artgenossen - das lässt sich nicht wegdiskutieren. Als Hobbyfotografen sind wir glücklich, diese wunderschönen Geschöpfe zwar durch die Scheibe, aber ohne die dicken Metallstäbe endlich fotografieren zu können.

Female leopard out looking for prey in the Masai Mara National Reserve. This image has been cropped to bring the leopard closer.
We could spot this huge guy at Grootkolk Wilderness Camp in Kgalagadi. While we observe a brown hyena drinking at the waterhole, this guy come rushing up and chased the hyena away. A really good start on my birthday !
The leopard is a male called Kham and was first seen in 2011!

Another awesome post from Hiphaus by Vida Lyric. Hope you guys like it<3 let me know your thoughts !
The classic Leopard image is that of an animal draped on a branch in a tall tree. Although Leopards do spend time in trees this image can be a little misleading as in many places where Leopards occur, such as the Central Kalahari, the trees are not suitable for climbing and the animals spend all the time of the ground.

Nocturnal animals, leopards are active at night when they venture out in search for food. They spend their days mostly resting, camouflaged in the trees or hiding in caves. (Source: National Geographic)
Namibia Leopard differ from cheetah by its stockier and more powerful appearance, bigger head and muscular body. The expression in their eyes is baleful and catlike whereas the cheetah’s eyes seem gentler.
Uncommonly seen due to their secretive nocturnal habits, they are solitary but can be seen in pairs when mating or in small groups consisting of a mother and her offsprings.

Whenever we go to Africa we do not have much luck with Leopards, so I was very surprised to find this one in amongst the thousands of images that have not been published.
We arrived at Motswari Private Game Reserve at 2.30 in the afternoon and were settled into our cabin. We were told to be back at the office at 3.30 if we wanted to go on the afternoon safari and of course we decided to go. An amazing experience and after only being on the safari truck for around 45 minutes we saw this beautiful leopard stalking some Impala.
This was our second meeting with this female African leopard (Panthera pardus pardus). The previous morning we photographed her resting in a tree. This time it was late afternoon and the light was fading. Our lady leopard was on the ground and moving with a purpose, perhaps shopping for dinner. We followed her a fair distance until she disappeared into the swamp grass.

I am backtracking to mix things up a bit on my stream. Taken in Botswana in late afternoon light and posing nicely.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
