BUCKS WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY's photostream  

This is the second image in the series of shots that I took when I photograph the bears at the Russian River, sometimes I get lucky enough to be able to shoot them without their knowledge as I did with this bear …. with my chest waiters on, I was able to sit in the river and in a bush concealed from him ……. I must admit that I had to sit quietly, so as not to let him hear me, because if he did, he would have came over to investigate the noise …. the only noise that I was making was coming from the camera itself when I hit the shutter button, but with the noise of the river ….. it hid the shutter noise quite well … once again….. lucky for me

I thought this was a great image of this mother and son Giraffe acting goofy when they were chase around the watering hole by a couple of Jackals. I don't think the Jackals could do much damage to them, but it was fun watching them being chased in a fun sorta way and the expression on their faces afterwards.

As everyone knows ….. when in Yellowstone and mainly in the lamar valley in the winter, the wind blows a lot……… When photographing in the wind it can be a little hard to get that right focus ……. now I'm not saying that this image is the best image that one can take in the wind, but I feel that it captures the feel of the wind that this coyote has to deal with on a day to day basis. …… What do you think………

When I am on the Russian River trying to get images of bear, I'm also trying to get images of anything else that I can get. A lot of time when I'm on the river I get to see these guys ( Mergansers ) and in the spring you see a lot of female Mergansers toting around there young. As you can see they have very large families, but unfortunately, only a few will survive.

This image was taken north of Yellowstone, outside of Gardner Mt. There was a whole herd of about 20 to 30, just grazing along the the hi-way.
