A little trick I use(doesnt always work) is to blow towards the animal and get a reaction that way.Most times theyll fire at least twice to check the air right after they fire the first flick I snap the shot and catch the second flick.
Of coarse you need to be set-up and ready before hand,try this approach and see how the animal responds ? If you see it works then grab the camera.

>>I find that the lag time between pressing the button on my camera and the actual photograph taken is much to long. It's a sony DSC-W30. Pic's arn't bad, but the camera isn't what I'd have chosen if I were to get one. What do you guys use?
