'Spot 'N Tickle'
Of late, mid-morning leopard sightings at Kulafumbi have been a regular treat. One morning, while working indoors, I was alerted to something going on outside by an extraordinarily loud growling noise. From the balcony, I saw a leopard walking along the opposite bank of the river...and before long, I spotted (excuse the pun) a second and indeed, it turned out they were a courting couple, weaving in and out around each other, and the loud growling was all part of the ritual...
Although quite far for my camera to reach, here are a few photos to commemorate the beginning of what hopefully will culminate in the birth of some new Tsavo leopard cubs...
The hidden hunters, above; and the weaving, growling courtship of the pair below...
Looking smug...for good reason!
