Thanks WS. I haven't read Aatish's blog for a while so need a good catch up. I will try and have a good read this evening when i've got everything done.

That Lioness looks soooooo thin you can clearly see the ribs. I hope it is not ill and can make a kill soon.

Its Aatish's last day in the Mara this time Guys. I think he's done a great Blog of his visit, and I've told him so. Some great Rhino shots and Nkaiyoni

The usual wonderful photos from Aatish and great updates. Shame that their time has come to an end again but hey WOW

they've been out there for over 3 weeks, that's living the dream :) Cool

We caught up him & his brother (Aashit) on a number of occasions when we were at the Intrepids and it was good to chat with them, they are very passionate & enthusiastic about the Mara & Olive in particular Wink

I know Aatish has finished his University Course but Aashit still has another year of his chemistry degree to do. The boys are very lucky in having their own jeep and also top of the range camera equipment that justifies the wonderful photos they post.

It certainly is WS - I wonder what is stopping the Cheetah

from staying in the Mara scratch

Shakira and her 3 girls have all disappeared and also Shingo and her 6 cubs - that's 11 cheetah alone with that two families, it's very strange but it's also very worrying Crying or Very sad

Good to see that Aatish has seen some young lion cubs, they are so much fun, you can sit and watch then for ages. By the picture he posted they look about the same age as the ones we were lucky enough to see this year :)

I got a message fm Aatish today saying he was a bit worried that he'd not seen Olive. Hopefully she will turn up soon. I think her family is amazing as both Nkaiyoni & Pacha look after Bahati when Olive is not there - most unusual for the solitary leopard.

**whitestarling** Wed Nov 02, 2011 10:10 pm

I thought it was worrying about Olive as well, she's usualy around somewhere. Fingers X she will turn up soon

Wonderful news of new additions to Alama Very Happy

Did make me think of the female cheetah we saw before we left in Sept who looked quite heavily pregnant, I wonder if it was her ??? I've no idea of what Alama's markings are so clarify if it could have been, might send a picture to Aatish and ask him, would be fab if it was Cool

**Laikipia** Mon Nov 07, 2011 1:30 pm

Good idea Doogs, that would be wonderful if it was Alama you had seen.

Aatish and Aashit have set up their own website which has some great photos / info on it. Both boys are in training to become guides at the Mara Cool
