This is has to be the funnest moment I've had yet. I can't believe I didn't get this cool contraption sooner.
Set up with Bogen tripod only a couple feet away from the feeder.







I've been waiting a long time for a moment like this.

Wow! Sandy those are sooo cool! Do some more!

[corralup]

Thanks, Jim. I might get some more today but with it raining I may have to set up from the kitchen window again.
I've seen her and another one but that's it. I only wish they would tell their buddies to come on over.

That’s fantastic! It would be even cooler if you could capture them without the feeder in the frame… huh?

[corralup]

Oh, that's what cropping is for. LOL I'll getting a wider angle next time. Its hard being that the camera is only fixed in one spot. This photo is blurry sorry bout that. Here you go, Jim.

even with the feeder in the view, these are some pretty good shots.

Or you could remove the feeder with photoshop.

Sandy,

Very Kool.

[jfoureyes]

There you go!!

[corralup]

Oh yes, PS would be good but I'd rather wait and get some more shots.
She'll keep coming back so it will be fun to get some new photos and try different lenses on her.

Sandy, you're going to have a ball with this toy!
