Parting Shot

On our way to the airstrip to fly back to Nairobi, this beautiful young female leopard was lounging in a tree. She had an impala stashed a little higher in the tree so she could nosh between naps. We were the first ones there, but soon there were a dozen vehicles stacked up around the tree.

I'm currently in a day hotel room in Nairobi, awaiting my midnight flight out. A long shower and air conditioning after 100 degree days and military-style showers was very welcome. I haven't even checked for dust spots, so apologies if there are glaring things like that...

Great catch of a contented cat.
