i take pictures of wild life with my phone if that counts. years ago when i was like 8 i did a lot of wild life picture, won some award as well in my wild life group ( a fish and game club i believe), got some pictures of some beaver the other day (photos came out awful though)

Some great pictures that I have seen have come from phones. The Iphone 7 rivals just about any DSLR. What do you like taking pictures of most? I love all wildlife, but have concentrated on birds.

i really like to take pictures or more just even seeing the animals that i don't see very often (i know pretty lame but i will go into detail)

i just enjoy seeing the animals which are rare or don't live near me, recently we saw a marten (dead on the highway), but animals such as bear (only have black bear in my province) moose, elk, antelope (pronghorn) beaver etc...

but for the birds i get more excited for hunting season when ever i see a duck or grouse.
 
Birds are my favorite, too. At my work there's a feeder that the birds frequent and they're pretty desensitized to humans so I think I'm going to camp out on the bench there with my camera at some point :)

So far my bearded dragon has been my most photographed subject, though. She will sit wherever I put her without moving so she's easy to practice on. My favorite picture I've taken so far is a close up of her face.

Pyxis, place a large branch or potted bush near the feeder. The birds will land on it, coming and going from the feeder, and you can get more "natural" looking shots. Having a subject to practice on is a great way to learn your camera and settings.

I love to see animals that I don't get to see very often. A wildlife refuge, or national park is a great place to go to see things. If you can go really early in the morning, you will have a better chance of seeing things.
