: Poor landing spot?

Any of you have a sweet spot for birds to land? This is mine.

Near the base of my bird feeder. Got the range nailed, hardly any cross winds in that area of the back yard, it's well back-stopped by a stone wall and thick brush for any pass through pellets, and it can't be seen by the neighbors.

This is WadeS's primary shooting box, just a hair under 15 yards from his patio.  Many times we've seen who can shoot the wasp or fly or other minute object in or on this box.  That poor bird didn't have a chance.  I'm calling PETA.  It has been shot so many times, we used spackling to fill in the old holes and painted over the top of that to "refresh" it for more shooting.  It's about time to replace the whole back 3/4" plywood.

What a nice thoughful little bird to land on your target holder. Made it easy for you for sure. Did you give him a proper burial for being so nice and posing for you?
