In Shivpuri, we went for boating in the Sakhya Sagar lake which is one of the important support system in the Madhav National Park. It is situated on the edge of forests of Madhav National Park. The lake is habitat of variety of reptiles. Species that can be seen here are marsh or mugger crocodile, Indian python and the monitor lizard.
While boating here our boatman showed us the crocodile resting on the rocks in the lake. He stopped the boat nearby for us to click some snaps.

That's a very nice picture. I'm glad that he didin't mind having his picture taken. :)
Btw I clicked the picture but the enlarged picture was not the same as this one. (A totally different photo.)
Lovely calm photo.
That's a great shot of a croc!
That is a huge croc!
the croc is big one
Crocodile!!! It is very dangerous when you are in water...
That was a really big crocodile, I would be afraid when being so near. They are really fast....
Wow! This is great to have a picture of. Little bit scary..
Happy Easter:-)
James : Thanks, I have got it corrected.
so cool! That's a huge crocodile, wow! Really neat you saw him!
Your lizards are bigger than ours!

Good that you kept your distance. They move quickly when they want to.
Hi Rajesh! Wow, this one looks huge... ;)
Thanks for your comments to Blogtrotter Two, now departing Miami by air; my Easter egg for you... ;). Have a great weekend!!
I'd be concerned that he might decide to go for a swim and head for the boat!! Cool shot.
ah cool, i saw alot of these guys when i visited new orleans USA
good shot!

Rajesh -- that is a beautiful picture; we love boating too! I think yours looks more peaceful than where we are. Thank you for sharing.
My April calendar picture (made by our grandson and his wife while on their honeymoon in your beautiful country) is of UDAIPUR palace in Rajastan.
Really beautiful shot!
Interesting catch!
He's looks mean!!! Just joking!!! He's pretty mingled well with the bg... :)

Dressing while Camping
Looks quite serene.
The huge crocodile seems to be beautiful although it is dangerous. Good captures as always!
This is one amazing C C entry. I loved viewing it.

Have a glorious weekend!
Great shot, Rajesh, as always! Love the crocodile -- at a distance of course! Like the reflections in the water as well! Have a great weekend!

It's always a treat to see your world in your photos...a land I will probably never visit...sad huh...so I'll enjoy your work instead.
Beware those great jaws!
One snap and you’re a goner—
crocodile dinner!
Shadowy Toilet!
excellent photo!!
That's close enough for me! Happy Critter Day!
How big was your boat, one wonders! Good shot. Glad you are still alive to show us!
I enlarged it! That is one big croc! We have alligators here in Florida -- not nearly so long, but fascinating all the same and they camoflage themselves in the same way as your crocodile -- they're quite hard to spot until you get used to seeing them.
You had a nice boatman to stop for this one.
Hmmm not the best place to go swimming I take it? I love the picture though. He looks pretty tame just sitting there! And I like the wavy reflection as well.
Look at those snappers.
Yay! I hate crocks! Good job.
Happy Easter.
Lovely shadow shot!
Please come and see my fitness shadows, happy easter!
Oh, my.. that's huge! Great shot!
As usual love your imagesxlynda
Gulp!
mugger crocodiles, Indian pythons and monitor lizards...glad they are there in the shadows and not with us!!
And that's why I don't go swimming anywhere to the north in our State of Queensland. Much better to sit here and enjoy Mr Croc in your beautiful image.
Terrific shot!
Wow, what a sight to see!
Beautiful reflection shot.
My oh my!! Any of those 3 reptiles you named would be scary to encounter...but the croc is surely the MOST scary shadowy creature. I don't imagine anyone swims in that water (other than the critters)!!
Hi Rajesh, I was actually looking for the crocodile ... that's very dangerous ... but great shot!
thanks for dropping by ... followed you on networked blog...
Majestic Mt. Apo
White Monarch
Happy Easter
wow he is huge!
How amazing to be able to get up close to the wildlife.
you were very brave.
Rajesh: Very cool critter capture sunning on the rocks.
Cool shot and sighting of the Croc. It is BIG.
Great shot! I haven't seen crocodiles in India...
Looks like a perfect perch of an crocodile. I think I'd keep my distance!
wow there's one huge croc! i visited croc bank in chennai lately and saw a croc which is said to be the longest in India.
