Finalist – Watching You, Watching Me –
This is one of the best leopard sightings I almost
never had. We were driving around the Okavango
Delta when my guide paused next to a photogenic
sausage tree. While I was admiring the huge hollow
at the top of it, Robi was having a closer look with
his binoculars. He’d noticed claw marks on the bark,
and fi gured a female leopard he hadn’t seen for
a while might be inside nursing cubs. Sure enough,
there she was, playing hide and seek.
