Here in Florida, almost everybody goes fishing, and some consistently enjoy eating a good fish dinner........

    How are you getting so close? I have attempted to shoot aquatic birds and work out of a kayak. Your work is amazing. Please share a little about your technique.

    You can't approach a bird and expect it to to stay there. You have to set up where the bird is going to be, and wait for it to come to you. If you sit quietly where the bird is or has been feeding, eventually it will ignore you and will come within a few feet of you. thumb.gif

    Ira, great photo--I love how those feet cling to the reeds. And I especially appreciate your description of how you get these great shots. Best, Pam

    Another excellent capture of this little fisherman. You must have a loooot of patience, to sit there and wait for them...
