Malabar Giant Squirrel

[Praveen Siddannavar]

We were driving from BR Hills to K Gudi and spotted this beauty at a distance, he was so far and didn't get disturbed, so I had time to connect my TC & keep the bean bag on the car roof top and finally shoot:001_smile:

Lovely eye contact. Its quite difficult to get them in the open. The light and the colours look good. Wish the out of focus branch in the foreground was not present, but seems you couldn't avoid it. The habitat displayed is nice. There is some noise in the background. Thanks for sharing.

The relaxed pose is nice...the details and colors on the back of the sqirrel have come out well. You will get to see quite a few of these in kabini very easily. And how much one will wish to sight a leopard like this while driving on the road!!:)

Nice shot. Good eye contact. Wish the branch in front of the tail were absent. Is this a big crop? Some noise is visible in the BG.

I agree with Abhishek. There is noise visible. It is not always easy to get a good sighting in open without branches distracting. That makes wildlife photography more appealing. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
