A major part of a successful wildlife photography experience is preparation. Doing the right preparation can make the difference between having a great experience and a frustrating one. The problem is that most of us do not have access to wildlife every day, or do we?

Getting to know your own area and the wildlife in it can give you access to all the wildlife you need to become confident when you do travel for your big trip. Most of us have our eyes wide open when we visit a new place, but it's almost the opposite in our home environment.

Getting to know our own environment involves much the same steps we need to take for a successful wildlife trip. This includes local research and getting hands-on practice with our camera gear, and understanding what it is and isn’t capable of.
