Chital - Axis axis

Black Drongos often use ungulates as perches from which to forage for large insects. This particular bird stayed on the back of this Chital for well over 20 minutes, sallying out to grab insects flushed by the foraging deer. Photographed at Ranthambore National Park, Rajasthan, India
