Cardinal/Nuthatch Shot (GRAPHIC)
« on: May 20, 2010, 02:34:08 PM »
I built a wishing well over my concrete well pipe in the front yard. You know the one that always has my prey laying out on them for their photo ops. From this vantage point, I am about 5 yards or less from the feeders. The birds don't have a chance. I shot cardinals, chickadees and nuthatches today. Thought you would enjoy seeing the shots. Its fun getting this close to them for the shot.

Shadowshot, Nice shooting. I thought you would like to know that the fist two pictures are of a Tufted Titmouse.

Thanks guys.
Paul, I posted a response to your question but I guess my blackberry didn't have a good connection.
I was taking the pictures while laying on my side holding the camera. Don't ask me to explain, it's how I had to do it.
