How to get the perfect photograph of a bird's nest

The brothers were pioneers of wildlife photography. In 1899 they published 'With Nature and a Camera' illustrated with 160 photographs. Richard went on to develop several techniques to take nature photographs including hiding in a stuffed ox in order to obtain better pictures.

With the advent of moving pictures the Kearton brothers went their separate ways and Cherry moved into the field of wildlife documentary film making.
