Wild Boar part II
A bit like I had in mind but I'm not there. It's quite easy to get them where I want by putting food at the desired places but we have a bit of a miscommunication....they keep turning their arses towards me while eating. Funny thing is that while they are feeding you can make any noise you want. They totally ignore me.

Well...I'm having fun with these creatures and my time will come.
And hopefully without having Lyme disease again. Bloody ticks.

iso 200 1/100 sec. F4 full frame but cloned out a dead horizontal branch.

I certainly prefer this to the first one.
Good one.
I had that lens too and got rid of it !
Cheers

John: Why would a man sell a lens like the Nikon 200-400? It has the quality of a prime lens and I really believe this lens is the best zoom lens out there.
