As previously mentioned, Sherry and I were very lucky in being able to photograph Leopards near Namutomi. Previously we had good luck near Halali. This year near Halali we only had one fleeting look at what appeared to be a large male before he disappeared. These leopard shots were taken withing several hundred yards of each other (on different days). We also saw and photographed the large male that hangs out in that area. Unfortunately the photos were not good. If you would like to see them anyhow, let us know. The photo of the three, I am 95% sure is a mother with 2 large cubs. Otherwise this would be a very unusual photo.
Seeing the three occurred as I noticed two giraffe looking at the ground and stoped to observe. Two Zebra then came up smelling the ground and bolted. I then saw and started photographing the one leopard. Then there were 3. had them to myself for a short time when one of those overland trucks pulled up and scared them back into the bush.
