On the afternoon drive we had great rhino sighting with them grazing quiet close to the road. 2 elephant bulls on the road as we entered the Kruger park, approx 50m from Numbi gate. A herd of buffalo crossed over the road just before shithave dam entrance. Great photos could be taken by the guests.

On our way back to camp we saw a male leopard walking on the
road. As we approached, it crossed over and walked into the bushes.
Guests are happy and now they would love to see some lions. Let's see what tomorrow holds.

Route: Numbi tar - Napi - skukuza - doispan - albaseni -
Nkambeni
General animals seen: giraffe, kudu, warthog, blue wildebeest, impala and rhino
Great elephant sightings throughout the day. With herds crossing the road on doispan just past riverlink
2 lioness's lying on klipspringer koppies
In the late afternoon, we found a male leopard lying on the rocks opposite shebeni koppies and stayed with it for approximately 30min. As we were about to leave, it got down from the rocks and walked in front of our open vehicle heading towards the shebeni link road. At the junction it then moved off into tall grass. As we lost sight of him, a female leopard walked out onto the road approximately 300m from our last sighting of the male. She walked towards the Numbi tar and disappeared into the tall grass. All the guests got great photos and videos.
That's all for the day, hopefully we can find great buffalo and lions tomorrow.

Route: Numbi tar - Napi - H3 - Napi - Albaseni - Doispan -
Albaseni
General game spotted: kudu, giraffe, impala, waterbuck, rhino, warthog and blue
wildebeest
We got a call on the radio regarding lions on Doispan lying
sleeping 20m from the tar. We decided to go have a look, as all the other
sightings of lions so far have been distant sightings. Found them and while
sitting watching them a male and female got up walked closer to us and lay back
down. This allowed the guests to get great photos before our return to camp.
Keep watching for more!!
