[Native Vermonter]

From my back yard. I grab a cup 'o Joe in the AM, set the 400mm f2.8 and D800 on a tripod, pull up a lounge chair, put on some mellow music (there are speakers on the deck), and contemplate life's wonders. I also keep a D600 with a 300mm f2.8 (VR) on a table nearby if they wander around a lot; I can sometimes track them from flower to flower, handheld.

I'm out there so much they ignore me while I'm shooting. Often times, they will come in and buzz around my head while I'm pruning flowers. I am anxious for warmer weather and their return.
