Hi everyone
Posting one of my favourite shots, a "civet" clicked in the wilderness in Sikkim.
TFL
Hoping to hear more critiques on this one.

-------------
Civets are small, lithe-bodied, mostly arboreal mammals native to the tropics of Africa and Asia.

Civets have a broadly cat-like general appearance, though the muzzle is extended and often pointed, rather like an otter or a mongoose. They range in length from about 17 to 28 in (400 to 700 mm) (excluding their long tails) and in weight from about 3 to 10 lb (1 to 5 kg).

Hello San,
Very nice one with more closeup. I love the moustache and also the pose. Natural sorroundings and excellent landscape scene. Well done and TFS Ganesh. Smiley tmrw

Hi Sangeeta,
A nice capture of this civet. I have never seen anything like this before. A very good composition and good details. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Hello San,
Rare to see civets during daytime. Excellent POV.
