As some of you know, a few days ago I taught my first wildlife photography 
workshop with a willing student.  We visited an area that has been very 
reliable for Black-tailed Deer and Wild Turkey where, shortly after dawn, we 
were greeted by a pair of Canada Geese flying from the nearby American River 
to the graze in the floodplain:

After a few minutes they announced quite loudly that they were going to leave

and away they went

Meanwhile a male Wild Turkey strolled past giving us a great view of his 
iridescent plumage

Nothing makes a successful workshop like cooperative models :) 

My photos: R8/DMR, 560mm Novoflex Telyt, shoulder stock & monopod.  All 
comments welcome.
