This a nice surprise today. The first one was taken with 500mm lens, which was too big, so I changed my camera to 5D with wide angle, not as good as 500mm, but it was able to get her in the full. Enjoy them.
BOB bonsoir et bien je ne trouve pas ces naimaux très beaux mais tes photos sont au top Avant ici quand il n'y avait pas beaucoup de maisons je pouvais les voir dans le jardin et même rentrer dans le garage BONNE soirée
Yes it was, this Boar has become a friend to anyone, which is a bad thing. She will be shot I'm affraid, that's the way, and I don't agree with killing them.
Great Pictures. We have very much of them in South of Sweden. But we have to shoot them so it will be a normal amount of them. They destroy fiels with crop and now they go into the cities and damage the gardens.
Great to see Bob. But they shouldn't be encouraged to mix with humans. It is fatal for the little mites. They ought to run at the first sound or smell of us otherwise she will be pork chops.
Extraordinarily marvelous! You must have been excited! Once while on ha hike very early in the morning, my husband and I were at a vista point in the Golan Heights, overlooking a waterfall. Suddenly on the opposite hillside appeared a whole family of wild boars - my heart truly missed some beats! :-)
Great shots Bob! It's not often one gets the chance to photograph wild boar. If disturbed I think they would run, rather than charge. Cute vido clip!:=)
She looks so content and happy! I especially love the one of her close up :-) I don't know how in the world you get these captures, but they are amazing and I love them! Great music clip too.
A great change from birds, that is an animal for which I have a special thing! They are so clever and given a chance they are so friendly! Brilliant pictures, they show how thrilled you were! Cheers Bob, keep well!
Remarkable seeeing the up close photo with the snout and her eyes looks surprisingly soft , great expressive photo BOb Love the Beatle's Little Piggies hilarious
wow! love the first shot with her very dirty snuffling snout!

Deleteils font des dégat chez nous BOB
ReplyDeleteGreat Pictures. We have very much of them in South of Sweden. But we have to shoot them so it will be a normal amount of them.

I don't think that killing them is the right thing, a better way is to stop them having sex, about 50% of all males.
DeleteGreat to see Bob. But they shouldn't be encouraged to mix with humans. It is fatal for the little mites.

I agree with you Adrian.
DeleteVery nice Bob and different as you say. Lovely detail as ever in these shots.
ReplyDeleteOh very cool.. that sighting would surprise me. And a very appropriate song. :)
ReplyDeleteBob, great shots! Interesting to see! I agree with you about killing them!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like that little piggy was having a good day.
ReplyDeleteShe sure is, cheers Ms Sparrow.
DeleteNice to see them running wild Bob. I know they do cause some damage, but that's the nature of the beast! Birth control is the only answer!...[;o)
ReplyDeleteYes I think it is Trevor
DeleteWonderful beasts to see Bob...
ReplyDeleteExtraordinarily marvelous! You must have been excited!
ReplyDeleteOnce while on ha hike very early in the morning, my husband and I were at a vista point in the Golan Heights, overlooking a waterfall. Suddenly on the opposite hillside appeared a whole family of wild boars - my heart truly missed some beats! :-)
Yes, and me. Cheers Yael.
DeleteWow, great shots, Bob. Wonderful meeting. For me it would even be a bit frightening. I am not a hero with wild beasts. Greetings, Joke
ReplyDeleteOh, there is nothing to be affraid of Joke.
DeleteGreat shots Bob! It's not often one gets the chance to photograph wild boar. If disturbed I think they would run, rather than charge. Cute vido clip!:=)
ReplyDeleteYes, they would run away, instead of charging you.
Deletedat is weer iets heel anders,wat een neus heeft ze.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteWhat a wonderful close up. Hope they stay in the wild and don't cause trouble to humans.
ReplyDeleteMargaret
Love these images Bob! Reminds me of the wild boars in Florida and Germany.

Well done Dad. I thought it would be hard to get a photo of a boar with a wide-angle lens.
