Thanks for the link Tony. It's a method I've been considering lately. Do you set up your blind in the spot you've chosen and leave it there for a few days or do you setup early in the morning the same day of shooting?
#3 is just gorgeous. I love the context and the posture of the subject. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks, Mike. I have a variety of blinds. Some that are made of just branches in remote locations are left up all the time, others I just pack in and out. I can't rely on the subject turning up when I want, so it is often hit and miss. These shots required setting up on four different days, and only resulted in half a dozen good shots. Three of those days resulted in zero photos.
My, you're getting wonders with your blind setup, Tony. These are about the closest and best-detailed shots of a Belted Kingfisher that I've seen, and I know how skittish they are. Superlative stuff!
Best Wishes,
Steve
