"ONE IN A MILLION"

Yesterday I decided to check on the "SIBERIAN (AMUR) TIGRESS" and her cub; I wanted to register an image of her "nursing" it. It was a nice balmy day +1*C with some sunshine. It was windy, a cold wind from the North. NOT COMFORTABLE at all. Was getting tired and my hands were starting to freeze up. NO LUCK.

The cub has grown; it's not a baby anymore. Shall post it tomorrow .... perhaps.

However, enjoy this ONE IN A MILLION register.

I noted the mother, with her hind legs, scratching the ground ... I was ready!!!

I got ONE moment and that was that.

Hi, dear Mario.
Not the most attractive event from tiger life but as a doctor (despite the post-doctor of economics) and lover of nature I welcome such attempts to register all displays of animal behavior. My best wishes and kind regards.
Alexei.

Namastay Mario,
Ofcourse it is an one in a million. How many of us had a chance to shoot the tigress peeing. A very good capture and what patience. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Sincerely
Haraprasan
