Thanks for the extra shots and congratulations Arun, you have earned a Spotting of the Day: "We've featured them before but we have a weakness for the Indian Giant Squirrel (Ratufa indica), our Spotting of the Day! Also known as the Malabar Giant Squirrel, this large arboreal squirrel is found in South Asia. Its spectacular tail alone can reach 2 ft. Giant squirrels (genus Ratufa, subfamily Ratufinae) are a specific element of the fauna of South and Southeast Asia, and count four living species. Their lineage can be traced back to the Middle Miocene".

Good capture

Thanks for the changes and for your understanding Arun! It would be great if you were still able to share here a whole picture of the animal with the tail.

Incredible, and such a beautiful shot!

Gorgeous, Arun!!

Great shots and beautiful animal Arun! The tail is spectacular. The large central watermark on your first and last shot is too obtrusive for our guidelines: From our FAQ page" "Can I add a watermark to my photos? You are allowed to add a watermark to the photos you share but we request that this is unobtrusive and does not dominate the image in any way". Thanks in advance for making appropriate changes. http://www.projectnoah.org/faq
