    Default Blackbucks in Rut

    With the monsoons comes the rutting and mating season of blackbucks. The does form enormous herds and the bucks spend almost all their waking hours rutting and fighting- often until death- over their territories and harems. The brute force with which they crash their heads together is something that will never cease to awe me. I truly wonder how they manage to survive without cracking each other's skulls! I've noticed that their spiral horns often get locked with each other- a real deadlock!

    EXIF Details:

    PENTAX K 10D
    PENTAX SMC DA* 300mmF4 ED(IF) SDM
    Shooting Mode: TAv
    Tv: 1/1000 sec
    Av: f/8
    Ev: -0.3
    ISO 400

    Hate mid-day light!

    Cheers,
    Aditya
