Hey bone do you use a blind? Or what do you use to be able to get such close/good shots.
Or is it one of those million doller lenses lol.
Regardless keep it up bro, Im a lover of photography myself. Im more of a sunset/nature kinda guy but Ive yet to even see enough wild game to consider that.

Tried stalking these, but they just kept running.   Finally charged them and they flushed.   Almost got one in focus.

Haha you charged them I totally wasnt expecting that, your awesome in my books bone!
I read a story about a photographer who was out taking photos of elk bulls.
Long story short, the bull started stompin at him and charged the guy, he ran for his life, Just to find himself head to head with another bull, he was like AHH, then dived in between two logs thinking he was for sure going to die.
Come to find out the bull he was taking pictures of didnt care about the photographer, he had spotted the other bull before the man did and was actually charging the bull. lol The guy just ran in the wrong direction.
He got some really great shots though.
Would be for sure a scary moment!

Bone
That is Beautiful. Love the "in the background" old farm equipment or whatever it is.
Is that your 70-200?
The wispy wingtips are awsome!

Now that's a view I'm familiar with....................and the one that all to often follows................................the rooster flying into the distance.
