Wildlife of Keoladeo National Park: Golden Jackal
Finishing up, I think, the wildlife posts from Keoladeo National Park, in Bharatpur India, this is a Indian Golden Jackal, a handsome wild canine common throughout Asia and into Europe. It is most closely reflected to the wolf and coyote, and, in fact will cross breed with Asian Wolves and domestic dogs. It is about the same size as the North American Coyote, and favors river bottoms and agricultural areas, as opposed to foothills and mountains. Sony Rx10iv at 238mm equivalent. (It was right beside the road.) Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixomator Pro and Apple Photos. ISO 800 @ f4 @ 1/500th.
India! Black-winged Stilt
Black-winged Stilt: Chambal River, Chambal River, Chambal, Uttar Paradesh, India, March 2023 — Another shot from our boats on the Chambal River. Black-winged Stilt has, again, one of the widest distributions of any bird, according to some, existing on every continent. Others consider the Africa/Asian as one species and the Stilts of the Americas as another. Some consider the Stilts of northern Asia different than the stilts of South Asia and Africa. So, confusing at all? Elegant, eye-catching birds whatever! Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications.
