My buddy and I found a nice spot a few years ago that Pintail ducks like to hang out in. It's off of a road with very little traffic but if you even slow down to look at them to hard, they are off.
We now have figured out how to approach them for a shot after quite a few years of trying. They are very spooky so we now drive up to the pond as fast as possible, hit the brakes, and then out the car window try to get locked on to a drake as fast as you can. Its not that easy as these guys usually take off just as you are stoping the car. Here's a handsome drake that I luckily caught busting out of the pond this year. 1DX---840mm---f5.6---ss1/3200th---ISO800---HH@7:45am---40% crop Thanks as always for looking and for your input. I appreciate it. David COME JOIN ME FOR A CUSTOM PERSONALIZED RAPTOR WORKSHOP NOV-MAR 2019/2020. PLEASE PM ME TO ENQUIRE ABOUT PRICING AND AVAILABILITY!
