Sherry and I were driving near Twee Rivieren when we came on another vehicle who had stopped. He told us that he had gotten a brief view of a cheetah out a couple of hundred yards under a tree. We decided to camp out and see if we could catch a shot. There was indeed a cheetah under the tree in fact one at a time they kept showing themselves until there were in fact 4. Felt sorry for the guy who initially told us about the one as he was long gone. They eventually got up and lay in the sand about 75 yards out. Unfortunately by this time the sun ws going down and they were in complete shade. None the less it was exciting as more and more appeared. This equals the largest number that we have seen once in kruger, not counting a mother with 4 very small cubs. Who knows, maybe next time 6 - that would really be a photo for the record books!
