p.1 #1 · Stop & Go Pheasant Hunt


Stop & Go Pheasant Hunt

After the early morning shoot at the Bosque we decided to drive the farm loop road a couple of times. Barbara was driving and we planned on doing stop & go shots. We saw something move ahead on the bank so Barbara slowed up REAL slow and when I said now she stopped since I already had the door open she was stopped for only a instant. I stepped down into the bank across the road from the Pheasant. The Pheasant was watching the car as Barbara continued on down the road until she was out of site.

I am glad she left

We have a couple of cock pheasants living in a hedge at the bottom of the garden and despite seeing them every other day, I have never got this close to them. Great shots.

Good job Roger. You can see the concern, in his eyes. Your "Howitzer" did a good job, too.

Roger great shots! wonderful colours on that bird. How close did you manage to get?? I ask this because I tried getting closer on them (from behind) a few times but the closest I managed was like 90 feet!! waaaay to far even for the 70-300mm + 1.4 Tc! I even tried the " low down against the wind" technique but to no avail ! males seem more nervous than females!
Thx for sharing....I wish I could get this shots since I have no pheasants shots yet!

Nello, I don't do distance real good but it was within rock throwing distance. Thanks for the nice comment.
