HappySquirrel....What looks like power lines is actually spider web. I think most new people think they are power lines then wonder where the heck they went during the day LOL

Good Morning.  Seems as if everyone has gone to the chat.  Not many folks come to the sightings anymore.  I miss them.

Boy, I know what you mean! Just wish the picture was clearer and the lighting was better. Do they still have an IR light out on the right?

I am not sure about the light ..they had it fixed but yesterday or the day before, right before daybreak I thought I saw it go out again.

Lynn , do you think there could be more than one Leopard out there ?  Just the way I saw them exit to the right so fast and then come back from the left ... and the distance between the Leopard sawing seems like more than one ??

I was just wondering ..if we see Leopard, Rhino and Buff at NK and Elephant and Lion at EP ..does it still count as a Big Five Night  Eye-wink

I can hear SSJackals calling in the distance at NK ..maybe the Leopards have left the area ?  The Impala is still around making his presence known. But all in all it seems very quite now at the WH

I think the forum does not allow email addresses to be posted so has a filter for the "at" sign which messes things up.  The user name with that sign is probably the culpret.  Only thing I could suggest is to register again with another user name that does not have other then the usual letters.  Once this page gets beyond what your settings are for number of posts per page the size of the page will return to normal.

Hi "New User" with the scrambled name LOL.  Welcome to the Africam Boma. They will get the name sorted out soon I am sure. Yes it was a very exciting begining to the night here at Africam.  And I am sure it will get even better when the Buff and Rhino show up  :-)  ..Lions and Elephants have been invited to present themselves to EP tonight  ;-)

Hi again - I just want to let you know that I received your pm but because of the user name problem, the system will not allow me to respond.  My request for assistance with your account name has been forwarded to admin.  Moderators do not have access to personal accounts.  I wish I could help you faster, but that is the most I can do for now.

Sabine.
