After trying a few months of nature photography I found that it is easier 
to track animals that have been mortally injured.  Just a tip to other 
beginning nature photographers: ride a bike along a well used road looking 
in the gutter for remnants of animals.  So far I have nice pictures of a 5 
foot long snake, a few robins, a squirrel and a few possums and I didn't 
have to spend money on expensive zoom lenses.
