Shooting Wildlife
Wildlife photography—whether you’re trying to photograph a herd of elephants on the Serengeti Plains or squirrels in your backyard—is patience. Wild animals are going to do what they’re going to do.

Be prepared to wait, and wait, and wait—it takes a long time to get good wildlife shots, even longer to make great ones.
But it’s not wasted time. The longer you spend with an animal or a group of animals, the better you get to know them and their habits. You get to see different individuals, and you’ll get to the point where you can expect what they might do at a particular time of day or in a certain situation
