Do you ever see wild animals?
By Tracy Schruder
I feel I’m extremely blessed to live in the countryside because of this I see wildlife every day.
I always have my camera gear fully charged and ready to go. I never waste an opportunity to capture the grace and beauty of my natural environment.
I’ve seen raccoons, skunks, fox and coyotes but they have proven to be too sky for my quiet shoes. I’ve never been successful in sneaking up on them.
However, I have an excellent collection of the more slower wildlife in my area.
I love the rabbits , even though they rob my gardens every year. They sometimes become really still as I approach them as if they have unwavering faith in their camouflaged fur. I have seen them with their babies but was too smitten to run for the camera… maybe I get a shot next spring.
I’m deeply grateful to all the bird species in my area. Most times they let me get at least one shot. If I’m lucky, they are doing something neat, like this beautiful Bluejay
I can get pictures of birds at any time of the year. Here’s some more photos of birds that I took over the years.
I also have a beautiful family of red squirrels in my backyard.
Chipmunk
Some interesting frogs.
A couple insects.
