Bird photography is a rewarding artistic pursuit. In a way, it is an artistic "sport" because it is challenging and there are many elements involved in getting the best shot; every outing is different. It's more than knowing your camera settings, it involves analyzing the type of birds and their species-specific behaviors, the weather, location and its settings. It's meditative in that it involves walking around in nature, slowly, waiting for the right moment. Your mind focuses on nature and clears out your daily worries. Your reward comes when you go home relaxed from a day in nature, and the joy of viewing all the wonderful shots.
Enticement: There is an eagles nest in the area where we will be shooting. The likelihood of photographing them is very high. The location is beautiful next to a lake and a river and Dam.
