    Wild in Canada

    First for us to actually see these in the wild and not in a zoo (all except the rescue bears)

    HUGE Otter, just caught a fish and I managed a shot or two before it saw me and dived in again.
    #1 - 5D mkiii / 70-200mm 2.8 mkii, 1/500, f/5, iso 100, 200mm


    #2 - 5D mkiii / 70-200mm 2.8 mkii, 1/500, f/3.2, iso 250, 200mm


    #3 - 5D mkiii / 70-200mm 2.8 mkii, 1/500, f/3.5, iso 100, 175mm


    #4 - 5D mkiii / 70-200mm 2.8 mkii, 1/500, f/2.8, iso 100, 185mm - didn't know it was just a Garter snake so stayed back a bit


    #5 - 5D mkiii / 300mm 2.8 mkii, 1/1000, f/3.5, iso 100, 300mm. Bald Eagle Heavy crop but it was one of the closest I got


    #6 - 5D mkiii / 70-200mm 2.8 mkii, 1/500, f/2.8, iso 3200, 200mm. Well into the forest hence the iso up to 3200, everyone said these were everywhere. . . . this was the only one we saw all fortnight (other than roadkill)


    Nothing too exciting BUT I'm happy with them - although some better Eagle shots would have been nice, again - we were told they are everywhere and we will see loads. . . . they forgot about the 'anti wildlife cream'I must have been wearing.

    .DAVID.

              Wild is always more satisfying than captive

                  Super shots. The Bald Eagle is my favourite.

                    #3 then #6. Both superb, all very good though!

                    #3's would be a good caption competition... it really looks like he's chuckling to himself.

                    You seem to have had a great trip!

                      Thanks guys, a good time was had by all.

                      Oh and I decided that Canada isn't actually that big - it only seems like it because your driving everywhere at 50mph (80kph) or SLOWER !!! if you could drive at 'normal' speeds it would half the size lol
