A Cape Vulture keeps an 'eagle' eye on race leader Kallie Burger as he tackles the Lesotho border road.
This was one of a pair of vultures catching thermals above the Mavis Top Check Point - catching thermals and almost catching their breakfast.
A story for another day, but Lily♥ will never know how close she came to having her first flight over the Kloppershoekspruit.
Note:
♥Lily, a boxer puppy, named after the Bob Dylan song "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts"
