Favourite subject and why?

[WillNicholls]

Just wondering what everyone's favourite subject is for their nature photography!
Could be a landscape/animal whatever nature you photograph.

Mine is the red squirrel as they are so characterful and give excellent poses for photographs!

Sedge Warbler - always a good sign spring is coming and they always seem to pose nicely.

 

[photogav]

Cuttlefish. But that's because I do a lot of underwater photography.

Roe deer at the moment. There's a small herd near my house and I have been enjoying watching their progress over the last couple of months.

 

[Cuddy]

Wild birds, smaller the better. Goldcrest, Firecrest, Yellow Browed and Hulmes Leaf warbler.

 

[Solo man]

Debatable whether it's birds, or whether these are my favourite, probably because I just find them a challenge to get decent shots of...
The Short Tailed Vole....

 

[rob-nikon]

my favourite would be foxes but red deer come a vey close second. i live near a dear park so have more opportunities with dear.

That's different !!

Scotland for me.

I can't pin it down but there's so much be it landscape or wildlife that just gives me a buzz.

Got to agree. I visit every year and it's an incredibly beautiful place with amazing wildlife. I get 'that' buzz also.

Whatever shows up! Though like the OP I do have a soft spot for squirrels.

 

[aerobandit]

Goldcrest/Firecrest as they're beautiful little birds and very difficult to photograph.

 

[Mr Bump]

Magpies at the moment, just seem to be impossible to pin down.

I popped this out my office windows this morning at about 7am

 

[gerbstoke]

Any insect! Very hard to get good pictures of them as you may have seen with some of the pictures I put on here! The things just won't stay still. They are full of colour and more often than not they usually eating another insect.

I love wild boar late autumn, they are so big yet so timid, frightening too. Winter coats are through and finding them is easy, once the acrons fall that is
In the winter it is the buzzards, if you can lure them down, watch their pecking order, they fight and quarrel. Brilliant birds to watch of you can.
The red squirrels were good fun too this year, I need to try to get them on the same perch as the buzzards
Spring is roe deer time, from winter coat mouting to summer and velvet falling from antlers.
Summer is, well, tick, horse fly and mosquito time... here at least. So not much happens

 

[gothgirl]

Horses, Especially heavies as I love them (shires / clydes etc.)

And reptiles, esecially leopard geckos and royal pythons

 

[RichardTaylor]

As a suburban city dweller it is urban birdlife.

 

[Romany]

Ospreys..whether photographing them or just watching them they gaive me so much pleasure

 

[Gaz J]

Im happy to photograph anything. But Ospreys, kingfishers and barn owls. Watching or photographing.

 

[g8ina]

Labyrinth Spider is my favourite, get loads of funnel shaped webs this time of year with ole spidey lurking just inside. This lucky lady has lunch :

 

[veedub]

Birds! Except that they are very difficult to capture, particularly in flight.

Otherwise, it would have to be insects.

 

[pooley]

Manta rays - nothing more graceful anywhere on the planet IMO. Pity it costs a fortune to go and see them!
