    … my techniques for photographing wildlife is a lot different than most photographers … I am not a patient person willing to wait in a blind or other fixed place and wait for critters to come to me … I go on a hunt for them wherever they might be and once a find is made stealth is the word and the hunt is on. Threats to most wildlife comes from land and not the water … whenever possible. I do my hunting from my boat and usually am able to get very close to our targets. Birds that if I am on land are extraordinarily difficult to approach, allow me to get very close and show no sign of being worried when I am on the water. In addition to other benefits, I can position the boat in any manner necessary to get the best lighting and view of the targets.

    If critters that I want to shoot are not where I think they should be I have the ability to move around quickly. Below is a shot that Eric took of me after we finished the shoot for today. At high speed (about 40 mph) there is virtually no wake as only around an inch of the boat is in the water and with very little water being displaced, well, no wake, but much speed. Maybe I can use this technique in No Wake Zones 🙂

    The adult male Bald Eagle above was shot in the back of a hidden bay on the lake and shows him flaring and completing his landing on a tree branch.

    Time to wrap the day a very long one, but much fun! Have a beautiful day and remember to give thanks for all that you are given in this life … speak a kind word to someone today and start a new trend 🙂

    Cheers,

    Ted

    A bird flies through the sky, and I fly with it. I am in
    each pearl of moisture sparkling in the sun. I lie lazy
    on the clouds. And I acknowledge my kinship with
    each winged thing.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
