Description
We came across this Cheetah female early one morning at one of the boreholes close to our camp. She was very skittish and eventually had a very small drink of water. She then wondered off to the far side of the waterhole. I remembered that there were a small road on that side and we slowly made our way to the other side of the waterhole where we found her lying down in the road, very relaxed. We spent about an hour with her until another car came around after which she got up and just disappeared in the tall grass.
It was a very exciting sighting and I will definitely post more images of her too!

What a wonderful pic!
Magnificent!
nice one
Oh wow fantastic. After walking around for 4 hours yesterday, we decided to leave the Cheetahs to next visit!
Beautiful creature
Such a fabulous shot! I've really missed your photography, Dierbaar. Nobody does these like you do!
Splendid capture of the brightly colored cheetah, spots sharply defined, contrasted against the dark forest behind her, Carin.
such an outstanding and beautiful capture of this feline. did you hear of the hunter in Africa being hunted by his prey and they killed him. I can not understand why people want to kill such animals knowing they are on the decline
Lucky you! On my photo safari we found a cheetah and her two cubs but they were rushing towards some tall grass so we couldn't get a decent picture. A few minutes later we came across a pride of lions. I'm sure you've heard what lions do to cheetah cubs. Great work on the 600mm.
An impressive and majestic pose for this cheetah, and a most gorgeous capture of it by you ! How beautiful, Carin !
She is beautiful. Looking forward to seeing her again.
What a majestic creature and a marvellous shot too !
Wonderful capture. She's such a beauty in the sunlight.
