I'm interesting in finding out more information in techniques used to stalk
animals for photography.

Any good sites you have encountered on this topic?

Thanks,
Brad

Hunters are the repository of information on stalking.

I won't make any comment at all regarding the value of the info, but
my own page on stalking can be found at http://wading-in.net/Stalking.html

And I somehow missed mentioning some of the obvious, such as sun at
your back, wind in your face. Skip the cologne, or even eating anything
with onions. Stay in deep shadows whenever possible. And shut off the
camera's little helpful beeps and clicks (and autofocus-assist lights) if
you can. The deer I was shooting less than an hour ago focused on me
because of the soft sound the lens made during *manual* focus.

Hope any of it helps. Good luck!
