About This Shoot
Date: 17 January 2014
Location: Laguna Seca Ranch (morning & afternoon)
Shoot Type: Wildlife
Rating:
Synopsis:
This was Day 2 of 2 at Laguna Seca Ranch. The morning shoot was at their raptor blind. Unfortunately, clouds kept the light from being the best, and it took awhile for the birds to finally show up at the baited perches. Birds at the raptor blind included Turkey Vulture, Harris's Hawk (√), White-tailed Hawk (√), Crested Caracara (√). Even had a distant Loggerhead Shrike. The afternoon shoot was at the Beaver Blind again, with pretty much the same species as yesterday with some different perch setups.
