    Rajan,
    This is rare. I haven't seen a albino blackbuck till date. This seems to be one. I wish you have a few images with the full legs and body. Great find. Where exactly in IIT. I would like to go and have a look. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi

    Hi Sabyasachi

    It's difficult finding this single buck in the vast IIT campus. I tracked it for almost 6 hours today and atlast got it just a few hours ago (around 5 PM) behind the Jalagandeshwar Temple!!!

    I did shoot around 200 snaps of this one and am currently downloading them. Meanwhwile, wanted to post a few . . . . here are a couple more.

    regards
    Rajan

    Hi Rajan,

    Thats quite a rare find. So it was certainly worth your 6 hours wait to find and photograph it. You got some good photographs, do post the remaining ones too.
