Marmot Ambush #1

Unread postby Roger Hogan » Mon Mar 30, 2015 6:25 am

I set up a ambush so I could get some behavior shots of a Marmot. I was wanting to get some shots of him doing his thing and not be on the alert. YIPEEEE it worked.

Great pictures Roger. Just goes to show ya, it's tough to get up in the morning even for a marmot. Especially like the big yawn on #1 and the morning stretch on #11 and #13. Good work Roger. :cheers:

That took some time and patience to get those shots! My biggest problem trying the wildlife photos, little time - and lack of patience. Great job here!
Wouldn't want to meet up with those teeth for sure.

Nothing like getting up in the Morning and starting the day off with Yoga exercises. Fantastic shots, Roger! I agree with Larry........those teeth! Yeow!
