Photography Opportunities

~Photography Safaris~

Today's affordable, high-quality digital cameras allow anyone to take amazing photos.  With that thought in mind, we are offering the opportunity to spend a day exploring the unique wildlife habitat that the Fennessey Ranch has to offer.  Work on your macro skills with the abundance of spring wildflowers and colorful insects.  Take advantage of the lush spring growth for fantastic landscapes.  Aboard the Pinzgauers, we'll head off to the most remote parts of the ranch.  Stops will be made to take advantage of photo ops.  Our plentiful armadillos, with the vision of Mr. Magoo, are good subjects to practice on.  They will stand on their hind legs, squinting and scenting, ascertaining whether the perceived danger is sufficient to send them bouncing home to their burrows.

$125 per person. Bring your own lunch and beverages.

~Photo Blind Day Rentals~

We have built three permanent photo blinds to capture eye-level shots of birds and animals in their natural environment.  These strategically-placed blinds offer the prospect of getting that once-in-a-lifetime shot.  All blinds are dry, comfortable and camouflaged.  These blinds were designed by Sean Fitzgerald to meet his needs during the photo contests.  The $100 per day fee allows the use of all blinds.  So pack your equipment and lunch and start snapping.  Reservations required.   Look at what one of our visitors has to say... "Went to the Fennessey today and took some shots of various critters....the Artesian Blind was very active so I was able to get images of a variety of birdies and critters doing what they do best....EAT" .....Sylvia Here are some great shots taken from  our photo blinds!   Dave and Liz Smith Nikon D 300 600mm lens
