Another day with Lorian, although without many photographic opportunities. In the morning Lorian was still near the tree where they had the kill yesterday, but she was on her own. She walked into a patch of bushes and disappeared. She reappeared shortly after lunchtime, and right before a heavy downpour. She was walking in the plains heading east. We saw her enter into another bush and as it started raining had, the cubs appeared. We thought she would sit and wait for the rain to pass, so we also waited. Only later did we realize that she had returned with the cubs to where she was in the morning. We found out that she had killed a Bushbuck inside the bushes. As they ate in the bushes, we photographed this nice sunset with Elephants.
