Cheetah!

On Saturday night, my son Roni and I opened some beers and started watching live African video streams. Shortly after sunset, there were three Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) in Chyulu Hills, Kenya. At first, I was really unsure whether they were cheetahs or leopards, as they were lying on the ground drinking water. But when they stood up, I could clearly see their very long legs and white tail tufts. 34 species now. 👍

P.S. In Selinda Reserve, Botswana, and Tembe South Africa, we saw also couple of unidentified bats. In Tembo, Zimbabwe, there was some big predator, maybe a lion or leopard, walking calmly in the forest. And two mongooses came relatively close to the camera, probably Marsh Mongooses.
