The Lazy Man’s School of Wildlife Photography

We’re at that time of year again when you can sleep in and still get up before dawn—sunrise was at 0914 today. The light dusting of snow that we got a couple days ago is a great, clean slate upon which to observe the neighborhood denizens.

So the lazy man went outside with his camera to take some shots of the wildlife that had been here earlier. You just missed them…
