Nice browsing pose. Good eye contact. This big stag has fine brow-tine but not the antler; signifying every individual is special.Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild
Good colors and composition. The the vibrant colors of then flora surrounding the deer give richness and depth to the image. The glimpse of the stags`eyes looks interesting.Thanks for sharing.
Nice one Bhargava...It is an irony of sorts that the deer is standing in a sea of green and yet has to try so hard to get something worth eating....that of course is our contribution to its life and habitat...

Nice to see this image. Good that its eye is visible. In Sundarbans we saw deers browsing by raising themselves on their hind feet as they can hardly find any grass in the swamps inundated by tides. This image shows the habitat swamped by invasives and the poor cheetal had to stand on its hind legs to reach its food.
PS: The lead article in this month's IndiaWilds newsletter is on controlling invasive weed lantana.
Beautifully exposed image...TFS
