Our safari started in Uganda and Tanzania through Kenya finish. Everything was going great guns and she was falling in love with Africa as I had many years ago. A big bonus for me was that we're seeing a lot of things in Africa I had never encountered in my nine years working for Acacia. These included being surrounded by a troop of chimps in Kabale, gjidhënien children watching a gorilla from her mother in Bwindi, seeing full grown lions lazily sleeping in the fork of a tree in Queen Elizabeth National Park, swimming with dolphins in Zanzibar and repeatedly accused by a baby elephant in the Serengeti inhibitor. If I have anything Lean from Africa visited repeatedly over the years, is that it never fails surprise you.
However, we were in the Serengeti, the latest game in eight of our safari parks and I was a little teeny nervous. No, they were camping in the wilds that night, but because it was Kristy's last chance to see leopard. Leopard is an elusive I love animals and hate in equal measure. Love, because of power and elusiveness it, hate because I know that disappointment can bring when i spotted! It took me a few years and game parks before I chanced upon my first leopard in Lake Nakuru, but I do this to maintain themselves and hoping that nature would be good to us.
On entering the park proper we first major predator came across was a Lion, big cat bravely surveying his kingdom in early discovery kopjie (rock). This was a good start. Immediately After that we came across a cheetah, visible only 500 or so meters away. I thought we were on a list - and low and behold, less than an hour later we spotted the first Kristy leopard in a tree! Leopard had company, a lay lifeless Thompsons gazelle, daintily hanging from low branches of young Acacia tree that the leopard had acquired. I honestly do not know which was better, with the eyes of the leopard kill her or the appearance of astonishment in the face of Kristy's.
We were happy sitting there, absorbing the magnificent view before us, meaning time from, and other vehicles away we got closer and closer for natural rewards. East Africans have said, which is quite apt for the whole of Africa, Paul 'Paul,' translated as' Slowly slowly in Swahili, and our patience was certainly rewarded.
Late October brings showers in the Serengeti short and sharp. As the afternoon began to wind I sense we can start to feel nervous leopard, surveying the landscape for predators and a safe place to stow sturdier its benefits. Then Boom! Thunder rain belted down and heavy. In a flash leopard caught by the scruff of antelope neck, hurtled down the tree and dragging her booty to a nearby kopjie, one or more 100 meters away. Muscles of the neck and shoulders bulged, magnified by the swimming rain drops below the skin spotted her. In another feat of great strength, now drenched lifeless carcass was dragged 10-15 feet of an Acacia tree, where at last as predator and prey was stopped in its protective roof.
I sent in Kristy nonchalantly If I had seen it all before, but secretly South has surprised me once.
