Just wait…

Photographer, author and
naturalist Hugh Chittenden is
one of southern Africa’s most
respected field biologists. His
canny observations and acute
attention to bird behaviour have
brought to light a wealth of
insights into hitherto unknown
courting, nesting and feeding
activities. But it is his patience
while wielding a camera that
reflects his approach reminiscent
of the old-school naturalists,
who waited and waited for
their ‘moment’ with birds. It’s an
unhurried approach that these
days is all too often disregarded.
Here he shares some of his
favourite images with us.
