A Jungle Cat hunting during dusk time

            A small wild cat found in the woody areas, forests and wetlands and places with dense vegetation. They are - I think - more common than we see them. Wikipedia says they are common across parts of Asia. The animals are quite active during the dusk, dawn and nights and rarely seen during daytime.

These animals are almost twice the size of a domestic cat and always sighted in the wild. They hunt rodents, quails, small ground birds, squirrels, reptiles and maybe smaller raptors as well. I have seen this cat many times, but this time, spent 45 minutes with it. It didn't mind our presence and let us get close, but the light was poor and I had difficulty holding the heavy lens for long at low shutter speed.

Many thanks in advance for your views and kind feedback.
