Finally a Tiger from the Sundarbans!

This was my 9th visit to this mangrove forest and finally I get to see and photograph the most feared predator on earth. 19th Dec 2014 9:29AM at Bonbibi Bharani we saw it crossing the creek. It was a sighting of mere 6-7 seconds, and like a ghost it came from nowhere and vanished into nowhere!

PS: Light was extremely poor and hence the quality of the image is not good. But I don't care about the quality here. Also, if someone feels that tiger sighting in Sundarbans is 100% luck, then that feeling is not completely correct!

Sit down son !

This trip turned out to be amazing both in terms of the sightings as well as some peculiar Tiger behavior I was lucky to see. There are few recorded instances of Male tigers participating in bringing up the cubs (Wagdoh from Tadoba is the famous example I guess) . Its largely the Tigress who hunts and watches out for the cubs. On day 1 (morning and evening safari), we saw Ustad take care of the 2 cubs, while the mother Noor (T39) seemed to be out on hunt in the afternoon. This is a shot from the morning when the eager Cub got a bit too affectionate for Ustad's liking and was lighty reprimanded by the father ! His expression does not look very light here, but all was well soon after
