The Wildlife Photography Thread

At a small BLM campsite in eastern Washington last weekend, still getting used to the 200-500.

Took a trip to FL a couple of weeks ago and camped at Salt Springs. While we were there we visited the rookery at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm. This was shot with a Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5 and 100-400mm zoom. It's a nice light combo for wildlife and much easier to handle in places like the rookery where the crowds can sometimes be tight and tripods awkward.

Cayuse, great shot of the American White Pelican!

Charlie, really nice shot of a Snowy Egret... An elusive bird for me...

Looks like you're doing nicely with it. Google "Long Lens Technique" for pointers if you think you need it. Moose Peterson has some good ideas.

On our last trip we had two nests near our camp with little ones about. The young House Wrens provided wonderful song.

All the sage grouse in the Steens and Hart Mountain had me digging into the wayback machine. This one is from 2010...

Another common bird of the area...
