2022 Best of Year Wildlife Photos

All photos are © Marshall Faintich

Although I took 35,000 wildlife photos this year, I haven't been able to go out with my camera since before Thanksgiving, except for one short outing in December. It was fun going through my photos from this year, and tough to pick my favorites, either because of image beauty or rarity. Here's my pick.
