This channel is about wildlife photography, enjoying nature, and the beautiful creatures that we share this planet with. My goal in creating these videos, is to help you to understand the struggles that wildlife face to survive, and that we need to do our best to protect them. Mixed in are some helpful tips I hope you may find useful.
I have been a professional photographer and guide for the past 20 years. .
I grew up in Northern Ontario, and have spent my entire life in the outdoors, camping, tracking, observing and photographing wildlife. My office and 2nd home is in Churchill, Manitoba where I photograph one of my favourite subjects ; The Polar Bear.

If I found a group of otters in a certain spot of a lake a few days ago, how long might they spend in a single area? Thinking about how quickly they exhaust their food source. I'm just curious because I hope to go see them tomorrow and it has now been about two weeks that they've been there. This particular part of the lake has a small area that is not frozen yet which is why they are fishing there.
@michaelbertelsenphotography
I have seen otter spend as little as two days in one spot. And then move on. There is no set time but if you see slush on the ice or in the snow then that means there is still activity. My recommendation is to go as soon as possible. Good luck

Just found your channel and subscribed. I like your no nonsense style of presenting 'just the facts' that I found very useful. I look forward to viewing more from you. One minor suggestion, you have listed your camera equipment, however, it would have been nice to see links to the boots and other gear you listed. Sometimes it is hard to catch the name of something when it is spoken, and a link would be helpful. Please keep up the good work!

Hello Michael, Thanks for the awesome video. Gear question- I am looking for snowshoe boots, I think it was the only pair you did not share the name of the boots. Would you mind sharing that boot brand and boot name?
@michaelbertelsenphotography
@michaelbertelsenphotography 2 года назад
Thanks William. The shorter boot that I typically wear snowshoeing is a Gortex boot made by RedHead( Bass Pro Shop Brand) It is labelled as a RCT Hunting Boot Style #520201. Leather Upper . I hope this helps you .

Awesome to be able to photograph the rare Pine marten which most people never see in most of the North American Continent is amazing. Its been on my photo list most of my life. I just got photos of River otters for the first time ever in January 2021. its now December 2021. we do have American Fishers in the Mountains of Maryland but no Pine Martens.
@michaelbertelsenphotography
@michaelbertelsenphotography 2 года назад
Eric, thank you for your comment. We are very fortunate to have a relatively healthy pine marten population . I have rarely seen American fishers. They are ver solitary ,unsociable creatures. I would love to photograph them!

@michaelbertelsenphotography
@michaelbertelsenphotography 3 года назад
Hi Jerry, I have the sigma 120 to 300 f 2:8 it’s extremely heavy sharpness is OK but nothing to write home about. I strongly recommend saving the money and purchasing the new Nikon 120 to 300 everything about it is better. much faster focussing,sharpness ,weight.
