Black-backed Jackal
Sciacallo dalla gualdrappa
(Canis mesomelas)

Eating the rest of a flamingo killed by hyenas.
Thanks for looking.

ITALIANO:
Se ricordate la foto di alcuni giorni fa dello sciacallo che faceva pipì... questa è un'altra specie, l'altro era lo scaicallo dorato, questa invece è sclusivamente africana.
Qui si sta cibando dei resti di fenicottero lasciati dalle iene.

Ottimo scatto per definizione, colore e compo, non so'la reale difficolta' dell'avvicinamento a questi animali.
Un saluto Pierdamiano.

Hi Andrea,
Great capture with the Jackal licking it's lips...A fine display also showing the savagery of life in the wild...Excellent composition, color and detail...Well done...

Excellent and well-timed capture of this Jackal in a fine pose licking its mouth.
Good light, great sharpness and fine colours.

Perfect timing with that tongue out of the mouth. Looks real hungry. Another very good shot with great details and lighting.

Hi Andrea,
It is a happy meal for the jackal. You have captured it with nice clarity and excellent timing. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Mi pare che ha gustato bene la preda ;-)

Ottima foto anche questa con belle sfumature e tonalità!
