Love it - way to keep it real and put out some quality content!

[@TheDirtyBirder]

Thanks a ton! Glad you enjoyed it!

Respect for the dedication and effort here. I'm generally happy to shoot from a blanket on floor by the shoreline 😂

[@TheDirtyBirder]

Thank you! I wish that would work for me lol. I guess I got to the point of no longer being able to justify waking up that early and going through all the effort if it didn’t give me a better chance of not being seen.

I enjoyed seeing how you worked with the floating blind. After another frustrating season trying to get waterfowl from shore concealed, I think I will have to take the plunge, and it is sure to be a cold plunge up here in NH! Love the pied bill grebe stuff!

Thanks John! I should mention I’m looking into getting a “drysuit” instead of a wetsuit next year, I was pushing my limits with the cold pretty much every day using the floating blind and it would just be nice to avoid that for the most part and focus more on why I’m there which is to take photos. Also, once I saw the pied billed grebe come up with a leech in its mouth while I was sitting in the same water made me a little sketched out that I wasn’t completely sealed 😂
