3rd May 2000
It was a change to see the Charleston pride around again. They’ve been elsewhere for some time now but all 7 members are looking really well. Having picked them up around sunset we stayed with them as we expected Tjololo to still be chilling out with his kill.
The lions were hunting and made an attempt on some impala but without success. They then never all regrouped and we followed the 2 adult females and a subadult male. They were still on the prowl and walked past a few kudu without being aware of them. Lucky day for the kudu. But as is typical of lions, a few hours hunting and then many hours rest. We left before midnight.
The long haul north to Tjololo was rather chilly by then, and we found him on the road heading back to his kill where he eagerly fed.
A few unexpected rain showers sent the canopies up until dawn.
