Nice.... wish the tail was in full ... Thanks for sharing...

Rare find. I agree that including the tail would have been great. Did you click this in vertical or horizontal mode?

[Anshul Jain]

Thank You. As I mentioned this was the only clean shot I got, before it started running. Had that shot as well, but blurred. Could not track it properly. It was taken in the horizontal mode.

Very rare sighting. Nice eye contact. As you said it was in the horizontal more, some more space on the left and less at the bottom would be good. Was this photographed in the evening? Thanks for sharing.

Powerful image. Its extreme agility, for which it is so much feared and respected by snakes and rodents, and the details have been very ably documented.

It is the largest of 3 species/subspecies found in our country. It lives on land and normally hunts on trees. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild
