- The pursuit of the elusive leopard

            “The charm is the pursuit of that which is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope”

After searching and trying....finally, we had an opportunity to get close to a leopard.
He's resting, probably just ate.
In the distance, the plains dotted with wildebeest, zebras and gazelles... the next meal.

LA BUSQUEDA DEL EVASIVO LEOPARDO
“El encanto esta en  la búsqueda de lo que es evasivo pero alcanzable, una serie perpetua de ocasiones que brindan esperanza”

Después de buscar y de intentar repetidamente….finalmente, aparecio la  oportunidad de acercarnos a un leopardo.
Él esta descansando, probablemente acaba de comer.
En la lejania vemos la sabana africana punteados con los ñus, las cebras y su proxima comida...las gacelas.
[Parque Nacional del Serengeti, Tanzania]
