Hey,
Once again, looking for another place to photograph some waterfowl. I am wondering were to find waterfowl at Lincoln Park Zoo, I am trying to find some species of ducks or geese other that mallards and canadas. I was wondering how close I can get, how low of an angle, fences or no fences, what species, or any other information that could help me. Thank you in advance. I appreciate your help.

Ryan,

Are you in the Chicago area? If so, you might find this birding forum will give you lots of ideas on where to find great photo opps, it's not about LP zoo, but there are lots of entries for northern Illinois on here that might interest you:

Hey everyone,
Well I'm heading up there again and am still wondering if anyone has some advice? Also curious to hear if the ducks are in full plumage yet? Thank you.

Ryan, pardon me if this seems dense, but where is Lincoln Park Zoo? And if you've already been there (you said you are going there again), what specific advice to you need? :smile:
