That’s me in my Ghillie suit, crying the blues because all of my favorite shooting spots are covered in ice…..
It’s that time of year when all of my favorite shooting spots turn into skating rinks. I think nature is trying to tell me to take a little break now. We’ve been busy shooting high school sports championships for the last month and my butt is starting to drag a little. Shooting sports is in many ways similar to shooting wildlife. You use much of the same equipment and the technical knowledge needed is the same. A fast flying bird or a fast flying running back, it’s all the same. You better be ready for both!
It’s also that time of year to reflect on how lucky we all are just to be alive. The last 2 years haven’t exactly been a cakewalk for us as a country but at this time of year we can surely put our differences aside to just enjoy each other’s company and realize how important our family and friends are.
But don’t think I have put my camera away for the Winter. Now it’s time to start looking for the four legged opportunities. Fisher, Bobcat, Mink, deer, and Coyotes are all active and hungry in the winter. And now is primetime for all the backyard birds.
Thank you all for visiting my blog this year. If it has brightened your day a little then that puts a smile on my face! We have enough bad in our world right now, let’s concentrate on the good.
