Wildlife - Small Animals

Small animals, including squirrels, fox, and coyotes are somewhat common along our highways. They are even more common on back roads and 4 wheel drive roads. If you have a Sports Utility Vehicle or 4 wheel drive pickup truck you can drive along slowly and see many photo opportunities. Most photographs can be taken right our your vehicle window.

A long telephoto lens for your camera will be useful. Most of these small animals will dart quickly away as soon as you open your car door to get out to take a picture. Most wildlife are accustomed to vehicles driving by. But they go on “full alert” when a vehicle stops. When you stop your vehicle, most wildlife will give you about 4 to 10 seconds to take a picture before they head for cover. Keep your camera ready.

Caution: do not stop in the middle of a road to take pictures. If you do, you may find your next photo opportunity to be an auto accident
