What I wish I knew before trying wildlife in Buenos Aires

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 8 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 6 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

The detail that surprised me was how much a trailhead changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.
