This was taken on last weeks Jasper STL. Here Chas is hoping to shoot either ravens in flight or coyote.

Looks like Chas' tripod has gone on a Velcro diet since last I shot with him.

It's Elmer Fud! I am not sure the red jacket will scare away the wildlife or not...

For that split second after this opened, I thought Chas had a "new do!"

Nice shot Cheryl!

That is the famous "owl hat" which attracts Snowy Owls

The hat's the only thing you wear up there in winter, Doug? My, you are from hardy stock.

Cool shot, Cheryl.

Hey now, that hat is a lucky charm, but seriously, a guy was killed by a Great horned owl wearing one

Regarding colorful clothing, most birds and mammals could care less, especially those that are habituated to the human presence, like those in national parks, preserves, etc. However, most waterfowl, wild canids, and a number of others do benefit from camo clothing, but movement and scent remain the most detrimental.

Best,

Chas
