We spent a week in Nagarhole NP in Karnataka State, India. Lots of good wildlife, but the holy grail was to see "Blackie", a "black panther" or melanistic leopard. The most anyone normally saw was a fleeting glimpse through the jungle, but on our very last game drive we rounded a corner and this is what we found. It seemed surreal. Just our car and the panther. We sat and looked at each other, till he became bored and wandered off. So lucky.
