Four things for the unexpected
Page 7
3. Don't be put off by the weather.
Barring extremes, packing up early on account of the weather is often a
bad idea when other things might so easily present themselves. Grey
skies or blue your objective should always be to capture wildlife when
and where you find it. It may be too cold or wet for one kind of animal
and yet perfect for another.
4. Keep an alternative subject matter in mind
Excursions can be expensive and equally disappointing. Apart from
getting back safely with all your equipment intact the important thing
from an extensive trek into the wilds is not to return home empty-
handed. So if your quarry does manage to elude you then better to
compensate yourself with a nice landscape or some insects, plants and
waterfalls etc.
