LEOPARD

On our afternoon game drive we spotted a dead ostrich, as I walked closer, I noticed some kill markings on the neck. As we didn't see anything else in that area, we decided to go and see the sunset a few km away. As the sun went down, we found a female leopard and followed her all the way back to the ostrich, and we saw her the next day!

CHEETAH IN THE NAMIB RAND

On my way to the opes safari vehicle I spotted two cheetahs about 300m away! We spent about 15 minutes watching them before they went up a dune. It was a good sighting around the lodge.

A dry, barren desert in the heart of Namibia still manages to play host to a number of spectacular animals, including this lonesome Zebra, caught in the morning sunlight.

LEOPARD AND CHEETAH

On our late afternoon drive in the Draaihoek area we were quite lucky to see two cats in one drive! This is one of the most seldom seen cats in the desert. It is nice to see that cats are still around in this very dry raining season in the Namibia.

SPOTTED HYENA

On our way to the big dune in the Namib desert we were quite lucky to see this spotted hyena running on the road. This is one of the most difficult animals to see because they mostly move at night.

STILL GOING STRONG!

Most of you who have visited Sossusvlei in recent times would recognise this unforgettable sighting of a spotted eagle owl near quadbike shack. Having been around for a period of, roughly, over four years, this owl still offers excellent photographic opportunities for bird watchers at Sossusvlei Desert Lodge .
