In this week’s magnificent spectacle, the collective managed to capture some sensational imagery. Firstly, we could put it down to the variety of sightings that one is able to see at Londolozi over the summer months. Secondly, the lighting and scenery have been something to marvel at. And thirdly, predators were basically falling out of trees. Lions, leopards, wild dogs and cheetahs fill up most of this week’s selection making it a wonderfully predator-dense week.
On the lion front, the Ndhzenga Male and a few Ntsevu Lionesses manage to catch a late morning bite to eat as they are left in one place and when the rangers went to find them later on, they had moved, caught a young wildebeest and were enjoying their spoils. The Tsalala Female is thriving and making friends with a large rhino bull in the Manyeleti River. And the Nkuhuma Pride pop in for a quick visit.
The Leopards see the Three Rivers Female being rather ambitious in a stalk of a kudu, the Ntomi Male in a marula tree with incredible light, the Flat Rock Male on a territorial patrol leading along the Sand River again, the Nhlanguleni Female checking in with the wild dogs on the airstrip and the Nkoveni Female walking straight down the road with a heavy milk pouch.
A young male cheetah has been lurking in the eastern parts of the reserve and making a name for himself. Hopefully, he sticks around for a while. The pack of eight wild dogs turn up and spend some time at the airstrip and then dance off into the rising full moon.
Let’s not forget some other magical sightings of a few elephants and Southern Ground Hornbills and a buffalo.
Let us know your favourites in the comments section below.
