When working with wild animals is essential to use certain means of camouflage to achieve the approximation necessary to obtain good results.
There are plenty of ways to camouflage. The most widespread method is the use of an await or hiding of small size and color of the medium in which it is installed.
According to the distrust of the species to be shooting more or less we should be careful when integrating Agura in place that we have chosen to locate it.
With aquatic species presents another drawback to When photographing and some perform their daily activities away from the shore, too far from our abjetivos.
A very effective method is the use of floating await (hidrohide), which is nothing more than a await installed on a floating platform camouflaging both the team and the photographer.

allows us to bet on the best sites of the river / lake and wait for the passage of the waterbirds.
also provides takes a unique angle, flush with water, at the height the eyes of photographed species, which helps the viewer connect better with the look of bird photography.
The low angle power blurs the background and the water layer, which helps isolate the subject in the frame.

Macho Gadwall (Anas strepera)
Particularly suitable for the picture of ducks and loons, is particularly well with the use of this await. In fact, once accustomed to making this angle, it will cost to re-look positively angles pictures of ducks with some chopped (such as those that are obtained from observatories in lakes).

Sometimes, when we give to individuals particularly confident, the approaches are amazing:

but the noise is not quite like and walked away slowly.

Little Grebe, a species that is fairly confident though
what this guy was too much, you just have to get into the hide.
And when the light conditions allow us to shoot at high shutter speeds can also be interesting to get pictures of action:

course may also be other types of birds. Such as herons.
This picture I show you just make an accurate throw from the poplar fishing where he was stationed, Fishing or rather "carving" a big catfish.
