Poky, Spiky and Pied
<p>The majestic, spiny presence of the Indian crested porcupine <em>Hystrix indica</em> could not be ignored, especially when two of them frequented the pool. These pied beauties would rustle through the undergrowth, amble quietly to the water, take a long drink, and disappear just as swiftly as they arrived. For them, there was no lounging or lingering at the pool – only a brief, purposeful visit.</p>
