Nice pics of the leopard :thumbup: I keep missing the the MR at the second picnic spot from Tweerivieren.

The suurgras is tall this year after all the rain in Dec/Jan .... and that makes spotting animals a bit more difficult

Looking forward to the report :thumbup:

How to upload?? I have a .pdf which is larger than the 200KiB allowed and if i split the pages into individual images, the 600pix makes the quality poor??

What is the best way to upload something like this?

Warren, contact Pieter, there is a site he has made available for this sort of thing. Then we can just link to it from the forum.
