Absolutely love #9. Your pictures are amazing, by the way - I didn't comment on your owl and hawk ones, but they are incredible.

well with over 2000 photos of Otters it'll be a while before they get jealous

Absolutely amazing. Focal length seems to hover at 100-200mm - how did you get so close!?

Any general tips for shooting wildlife?

Another wonderful series. I'd love to be able to observe a fox for a while...the only ones I've seen have been fleeting glimpses of wild ones (although one did come about 10 feet away to pick up a piece of bagel I tossed to it - it was obviously fairly used to humans). My faves of this series are 1 and 11, although I'd be tickled pink to have taken any of them myself.

I was very close, between 2 and 6 meters most of the time.


just practise practise and practise some more. Go to wildlife centres and watch animals to learn how they behave.
Use hides where possible and if taking shots at wildlife centres watch your backgrounds
