With growing popularity of this location in the recent years, I’m receiving more and more messages asking me for information on how I’m photographing there for best results. For that reason, I’ve decided to write this guide, to help you get the most out of your visit no matter if you are the first time or regular visitor. I’ve been visiting this spot for over 10 years and worked out a simple strategy for getting the best possible photographs. I’m also sharing many tips that help me plan my outings there, where to shoot from, what to avoid, what to wear etc. Currently, you can preorder it here: https://www.greggard.com/location-guides/short-eared-owls-new-york-location-guide
