Oh man were they a challenge and a half to shoot. I went back to my favourite lake 3 times in one weekend trying to get a better shot.

About Jim Cumming

Hello and Welcome
I’m an amateur photographer and pretty new to wildlife photography. I found my calling with wildlife, mainly birds and whitetail deer as they are plentiful in this region. I find great satisfaction photographing birds and mammals and of course coming upon anything out of the ordinary.
I hope you enjoy your visit.

  • Thanks very much Nick…I wish it were raised tho, but they only raise their crest when they are agitated…should have said something about his mom..LOL
