Where Wildlife Gathers
It’s a quiet morning in my photo blind at a waterhole on a ranch in Mexico. Suddenly, a troop of coatis wander down for their morning drink. Quickly, I’m composing, focusing and firing away. Coatis, especially in a group, are not a common sight. The coatis leave and the calm returns. Welcome to the quiet valleys and the panicked peaks of wildlife photography.
You can improve your success rate for photographing unique wildlife species like coatis by using photo blinds near water sources. Wildlife, from insects to mammals, need water, so setting up an inconspicuous photo blind at a water source can greatly improve your chances to photograph portraits, behavior and interaction of animals when they come to drink.
