Badger Peek-a-boo

Gallery: WildlifePosted January 6, 2011139 views7 comments

Was going to post another Badger photo, but decided how much better I liked this much older shot. This is one of the few shots I still have kept on my website from the film days.

Don't know many details...Canon 400 5.6L lens, don't remember the camera body, Fuji Provia film.

Intimate look at this guy with great eye contact Terry.
I especially like the expression here, I see why you've kept it over the years.
Thanks for this one, very cool

That's a great shot. As a fellow Badger, I'd love to be out there and see one of these myself.

Hey Terry,

Cute! The look/expression reminds me so much of one that I get from one of my dogs all the time...so I have an inherent emotional attachment to the image! Definitely a keeper. In a perfect world it would be nice if that out-of-focus band along the bottom wasn't there (or wasn't quite SO out-of-focus), but pretty darned hard to avoid...

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Brad

I fell in love with badgers one summer when I watched a family for a few days. Love the detail in this and that cute expression. I think there is some suspicion in those eyes or maybe its just do you want to play? I am impressed with how close you must have been.

Terry,

This is a fantastic image. His facial expression looks like he just popped out and was surprised by your presence.
