I was the same way until I got more familiar with the areas I shoot wildlife. Once I learned where most of the activity is I would go find a place downwind and just sit there waiting for the action. Wear clothing that blends with the surroundings, or find someplace to conceal yourself but still be able to get the shot.

Just like fishing, sometimes I get lucky while other times I go home empty. I'm glad I don't rely it to survive.[H]


There are times I still go out to the nature trails for a brisk walk, for the exercise, and bring the camera along in the event I might see a good photo opportunity.
