Wildlife photo thread

Is that Wilson in the foreground? :slight_smile:

No, it’s a different buoy. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I wonder if the wolf had become accustomed to human day trippers on lunch stops or overnight campers leaving edible debris?

That’s supposedly the way wolves became human companions . Symbiotic relationship.

Osprey peers down
from craggy clutch,
it thinks me fishy,
but not so much,
to stoop on lowly
in such a dive,
of paddle pusher
glaring back fisheye.

There is a lot of wildlife in the marsh. This morning I’ve seen osprey, great egrets, swallows, purple martins, oysters and 3 guys pushing a boat who don’t understand tides.

You park here:

to get this shot

Winds were 10-15 mph and I found a sunken log that I was upwind of that I could hold onto with one hand and shoot with the other. We stayed there probably 15-20 minutes, just watching them.

Whatcha gonna gopher there within the cone of silence?
Another of the pine nuts says, “He tortoise place in violence.”
And if it ain’t ya mamba then the smooth green grass of home,
just pulled-up roots to range through boots forsnaking legs in loam.
So who is gonna seek the peas beneath the shuffled shell,
reposed as mossy trip up stone in step with trip hop hell,
which takes the paddler from the drink to nearly in the tank?
With snap of finger or somethin’ more, you can take it to the bank!

That was mean… to the spider.

There’s a Great Egret that always hunts in this one cove I paddle by on my local creek. He doesn’t like it if I get too close, but doesn’t seem to mind if I watch him from a reasonable distance. Today I took a quick work break paddle to see how my shoulder would fare, and sat and watched him for a nice little spell while he fished. And this is the best photo I could get with my iPhone. sigh

As soon as I sell my whitewater kayak, I’m using the proceeds and getting the recommended camera. I’m really excited about taking some good (or maybe just not awful) wildlife photos for a change.
