An early morning in Keoladeo bird sanctuary, Bharatpur. I had to wait for about twenty odd mins for these jackals to wake up. The rickshaw puller told me not to leave the road as the park authorities have stopped people from going off road due to the presence of a tiger. :-( I could have easily moved closer and removed the 2x TC.

Lovely light. I like the intense stare. The background is nice and smooth. A bit less space at the bottom would be good. Thanks for sharing.

The vertical composition looks good. The eye contact is nice. Has he got something in his mouth? I am fine with the present composition, with space to move at the bottom and there are no distractions to remove. Look forward to more from Bharatpur.

Nice image.BG and colours are nice.Seems to have something in its mouth.
Are the Jackals in the north bigger than the ones in south??? or is it because of the thicker coat.

Roopak,
The ones in bharatpur actually appear bigger then their southern cousins. It was cleaning up its coat and picked up a leaf (I think) and then carried it for sometime in its mouth as if it is a toothbrush (sorry for attributing human like traits :) ).
Cheers,

Dear Sabyasachi,
Beautiful capture. Me too agree with others on composition with less bottom area. Re: Mouth with Grass. I think carnivorous do eat grass as medicine. Please correct me if I'm wrong..I've seen lion eating grass so this is same with this jackal too :)
All best wishes,
Cheers, Rahul
