Like most photography, be patient, adaptable and be ready is the best advice. You can sit for hours and not get a single good shot. But without warning they will do something that will enable you to take a remarkable shot. I love photographing wildlife. When I'm able, it is in the wild, in their natural habitat. When travel is not possible, you can still get some great shots at zoos and nature parks.
