Most of us have respect for the subject and I can tell you based on the lenses these dip****s had, 30 to even 50 yards would have been more than close enough to enjoy the bird and to get a decent shot... I would venture to say 75 would have even produced a great shot... Like mentioned , was he going to sit and pet him or give a kiss... This is irritating to see .. A ill patience and it will come together... No one said it was easy ... Alan "horse51" Barbor

I watched a "photographer" do the same thing to a rutting elk at RMNP last fall. There were 100+ photogs on the road taking pictures happily from behind the "do not enter the moraine" signs, and then there was the one idiot who had to walk 300 yards in order to get 5 yds (not exaggerating) from the bull elk. Luckily the park rangers were there to reign him in. One day I was walking on the street and somebody handed me a camera. I looked at them and said, "This is not a Canon, what do I look like? A charity case?" So I took it, and THREW IT ON THE GROUND!

Agreed, everyone was holding their breath...I just don't know if it was in anticipation or fear One day I was walking on the street and somebody handed me a camera.
