Yes Karen, this was taken in 2008, so she was 11 and had youngish 2 cubs. I think I have couple of shots of them. I'll dig them out. They didn't come out in the open except for a minute or 2 one day when we saw her.

Sachin, no I am in a Landrover and she is up in the tree about one story high, so not too bad. I was lucky because it was a RARE occasion that only 1 other vehicle was there so I was able to get my guide was to move the car around to get the best angles and lighting

Wonderful photo! So from what you said she would be about 11 years old here? She looks in great condition for that age!
