Leopard

I've photographed this rather large young male before back in March, so it was great to catch up with him again.

He's expanded his territory into another older leopard's range (we'll meet him later..) but in a head to head battle Tyson lost two out of three rounds and so isn't yet the area's dominant male.

He's a big fella though and rather intimidating up close, which we were lucky to do more than once. There are more of this guy on the way... This one I like... I was wishing that he'd take a step or two into the patch of sun in front of him as he was all in shadow - lucky for me he obliged!

There are between 12 and 18 leopards known to be in the Sabi Sands area and quite a few are regular visitors to the traversing area of our Lodge.

This trip we saw 7 different cats on more than one occaision, so get ready for an awful lot of Leopard pictures!!

They are amazing animals - of the two, if I had to choose between a Leopard sighting and a Lion - the Leopard wins every time!

Something caught the eye of this Amur leopard while he was eating.

This was the sixth leopard we saw on the trip, and the first adult male. He had a much more menacing look than the women, and was decidedly chunkier.

For Christmas 2011, I was given a present in which I could go to Chessington Zoo on the 1st March 2012. However, the Zoo itself was closed to the public and only open for 8 photographers who booked a Wildife Photography session at the zoo, with a company named Going Digital. Therefore, we were allowed to see all the animals in the zoo, up-close, and watch the animals feeding times - such as Tigers, Lions and Leopards. These are my favourite images from that day on my Flickr and wordpress (mattpollardphotography.wordpress.com) Please let me know what you all think.
