We were driving back from Segur road and our morning safari had almost come to an end. As we were just about to approach the view line, we saw a herd of spotted deers grazing and some resting, by no means this was a small herd my guess is, there were over 100 deers atleast. Seeing them we spotted and it is never easy to photograph such a large herd.
Within minutes we heard a langur alarm call, it was quite evident a cat was somewhere around. I asked Muddu our driver to drive few yards and we stopped again. And on our right we spotted this huge male leopard crouching from the Parthenium. He had his belly full and was looking for his mate that is clearly seen in the image how focused he is.
