Nice environment photograph. The alert pose looks nice. Wish the eyes were in clear. It is good you got the focus right through the dense vegetation in the foreground. It camouflages nicely with the dry habitat. Thanks for sharing.

Mangru do you know that you have actually hit a jackpot with this one. This is not a barking deer, infact this is a four horned antelope which is currently the closest living relative of the nilgai. There are only about 10,000 four-horned antelopes that remain alive in the wild. According to the IUCN, the species is marked vulnerable. Lucky you I say.

Thanks

This is a chausingha - you can see the small horns in front. Wish you had got it in the clear. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
