This issue’s Wild Encounter was sent to us by nine-year-old, Satyaki Majumdar from Kolkata. Keep reading to know what’s happening behind the shot!
“While on a family trip to the Sundarbans, we came across a beautiful sight; a couple of small clawed otters Aonyx cinereus were fishing in a creek. After a while, one of the otters stopped fishing and quickly ran into the bushes. The other otter began to follow, when suddenly a juvenile Brahminy Kite Haliastur indus appeared and tried to catch it! The otter narrowly escaped by diving into the water. It emerged at a distance and tried to join its friend but was once again thwarted by the Brahminy Kite, and was forced to submerge under the water to escape. This continued for quite a long time. Finally, the Brahminy Kite got exhausted and left, and the otter managed to run towards its companion.”
