You can't get very close to them. These were cropped. Thanks for looking.

Really nice! I've been trying to get shots of these guys for years. Not nearly as successful as yours.

How did you get this close? The only way I can get this close---even with a 600mm lens is to be in a blind.
Nice work.

Nice work.


I usually take my pictures from a kayak on the river but we were camping this week and did not have my kayak with me. These were taken from the truck window with a Tamron 150/600 mm lens but still heavily cropped.
