Kabini/Nagarhole.
On a morning safari we sighted leopard resting on tree top from the main road but it was far for my lens,as it was 9.15am we had to leave.As soon as we reached the resot we drove to that spot in our car where we saw the leopard by then it had left the spot.There was no signs,so we drove a little further & turned back towards the resot with disappointment....................There it was on the main road not alone.........a mating pair..........i just clicked 4 shots............ty disappeared. My mode was changed from Av to Tv,but luckily it was set to 1/250s. This was the only decent image out of 4:(
BUT still Wat a DAY it was for me,.,.,.,.,.,.,:):thumbup:

Nice to see a pair. It would have been difficult to move closer, especially in an empty road. Great sighting. Wish you had a longer lens. The male appears to be younger than the female. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
