Great results when you can get that close to the wildlife.

Perhaps we need a thread for wide angle wildlife shots!

Enough of the birds for today, here are the sleepy deer in the backyard. They refuse to come out in the open......most of the time.

Sounds easy, but camera in one hand, herring in the other, how can you push the shutter button?

Actually, having been assaulted by a tern once I know the secret here is to get too close to their nests.

The deer here, not only come out in the open, they peek in my windows!

Some from the Topeka Zoo and Conservation Center on Saturday

it is hard to get a good shot of the Eurasian Eagle Owl since they like to perch high up in the tree

a couple of the trumpeter swans, the first from across the pond

the second from on top of the feeding platform as it moves in close

the 4 year old black bear ( cinnamon coloration )

a flower as a change of pace

Synchronized swimming, K 200 + K T6-2X on K5iis. Appears all the wildlife were in sync today, hunting for the delicacies under the surface today.
