Anyone who has spent time in African bush will know how rare a good sighting of the Wild Cat is. We were later a little disappointed not to see Lion in the park, but for me this was a much more satisfying 'spot'.
As we drove across the dirt roads towards the Mata-Mata entry to the Kgalagadi I spotted a slight movement on a dune to my right and eased on the brakes. At first I couldn't see what I thought I saw and then the cat made a short run from one piece of cover to the next, clearly stalking something at distance. It was unconcerned about our presence and at a nice distance, but the light was very harsh and this is the best I managed out of half dozen or so. I just watched with the Bins.


love the lighting. its a beautiful shot
