While photographing birds in flight you have to plan the picture. It is suggested that you pick out one bird and watch its activity. Birds usually have a pattern that they set when they fly. They will move from one place to another and eventually work their way back to the original starting point. Watching these patterns will allow you to predict what the bird will do next and as such you’ll be ready for the shot.
Taking pictures of ground animals is pretty fun too. One of the things that you need to concentrate on with your shots is keeping the animal’s eyes in focus. Most people looking at animal pictures will start their viewing there. Also try and put yourself into a position where 
you share the same height from the ground as the animal. So taking pictures of small animals like frogs means the camera will almost rest on the ground.
Photographing nature is a fun hobby. It does not require a lot of expensive gear. You just have to know your camera and the subject and have some patience. The best pictures are usually taken over a period of waiting for the subject to be in just the right position.
