Super shot Clement. Either she's very well fed, (and I think not as no blood around the face); or she's heavily pregnant, which is something we do not see too much of.

Lovely sighting.
Make your life spectacular!

A lovely view of this expectant mother.  With the low survival rates of cheetah cubs, every one is precious, isn't it, Clement.

Those eyes! So intense. I hope she has successful cubs. Looks like you were pretty close!

Those piercing eyes are caught perfectly in the low light. Overall wonderful pose.

The amber eyes just go right through you. Lovely pose of this mama-to-be. Wishing her luck.
