I think Helen and Alan have covered most points already.
Priority number one should be minimal disturbance; don't neglect your potential to disturb nesting birds or other wildlife, especially if the habitat you are in is uncommon in your area.
Roadkill is better, it will contain the roughage which is essential in their diet (the act of removing roadkill from the road may save a life too). Don't forget to stake out the bait so it isn't removed by the first bird or mammal that discovers it!
Study your subject; the more you understand about their habits, the better you'll be at anticipating when and where to photograph. Try using your car as a hide. |
