They are pretty skittish critters. You must have a very quiet and calm presence to catch this photo. erronis Mar 2023 #5

I am lucky enough to go out every morning to shoot. I call it my Zen time.

It's hard for me to go down to our local brook and look for the wildlife.

I usually have a dog or two with me. Sort of disrupts the naturalness.

professionally. I am a sitter rather than walk through the woods. I find a spot and sit, without moving, for hours waiting for the creatures to come to me. LOL... Yes, dogs do not help.
