It wasn’t until the second to last night in Kenya that we had our first leopard sighting of the trip (although we would have two more on the final day). We were in the Masai Mara where you’re not allowed to drive off road and the leopard was quite a distance away. Several other vehicles were in the area, all trying to predict where she would make her move. We guessed right and were treated to a very close view as she passed about ten feet from our vehicle and then disappeared into the forest.

Magnificent. Probably it’s spots don’t work as well in the green grass season.
Not sure I am liking the sharpening technique on the faces of the animals in some recent shots.
That’s quite a tail! Must have a strong tail muscle to hold that thing up.
