    I thought it was amazing they took hundreds of photos to just get 1 or 2 good ones! That’s a lot just to sort through!

      Wildlife photography is particularly grueling, it’s basically the whole difficulty of hunting in finding the animals, but then an extra layer of difficulty for all the photo related stuff (lighting, composition, technicalities, shooting very long focal lengths and so on).

      That said, a few hundred clicks is not really a big deal, sometimes I come home from gigs with north of 3000 clicks for a single day of shooting. Is what it is.
