Managed to sight only langurs and spotted deer at Borivli-SGNP, Mumbai. This one was sitting high up cuddling its mom while at a short distance someone noticed a 8 ft long snake. Not sure whether the langurs saw the snake but I liked the hug me close look.

Nice behaviour captured.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

P.S.:Murugan Bhai,
Did you enquire whether it was a common cobra or a rat snake.Langurs are very alert about snakes.SaktiWild

Saktida: It looked like a rat snake but was a bit far for me to notice properly. The guy who saw it said brown snake, not sure he was aware of the species.

Nice behavior captured. A slight more space at the bottom to include the tail in full would have been good. She seems to be alert because of the snake. Thanks for sharing.
