Sunday, 06:00 We wake to the sound of lions roaring.

Me:“Sounds like it’s the big pride we saw last week, are you going to have a look?”

Michel: “ Nope, I’m going to get my coffee”

06:10 Michel puts his head around the door “They’ve moved to behind the koppie, I’m going to look, do you want to come?”

06:15 Up, coat on over pyjamas, camera ready and in the game viewer!

It was indeed the big pride and we were again lucky enough to find them just a bit past where we thought they would be.

We followed them until the crossed the spruit (dry riverbed) back into our property and then we had to drive all the way around to just get them at our dam where they were drinking.

They then slowly went through the back garden to finally cross over into the neighbouring reserve. Hopefully they’ll be back for a another visit soon.

P.S. and once again nothing on the camera trap as the card was formatted wrongly. Hopefully now I’ve done it right and third time will be a charm.
