Dear All,
A Male from Zone-4, RNP , walking through the golden grass. \
It was an amazing moment, the tiger kept calling Aaaooongh, Aaaooongh..!! in its deep glutteral voice while walking along side the gypsy.
I heard this in the wild for the first time. It reminded me of our trips to the Kanpur zoo in my childhood, when the captive tigers used to call out at meal times.
The reason for this male's calling is not clear to me, maybe he was calling out to a mate...i could be wrong though.
EOS 50D + 300 f4 ISL at 1/500 f8 ISO 640. I reduced the colour temperature, sharpness from 5 to 3 and the contrast a bit.
Look forward to comments
Cheers
Dipankar
