Digiscoping owls: Yerington Photojournalist Richard Massey has been receiving quite a few questions about what equipment he uses for wildlife photography. Richard wrote:
“One of my favorite set-ups is my phone mounted on a spotting scope. Yeringtonite Roberta Bryant took this picture of me at the Mason Valley Wildlife Management area, just north of town. The second picture shows what I was photographing. The Burrowing Owls were about 50 yards away.”
