Description
Several of you have been interested in where I am shooting my bird series from. Here's the short answer.
Much to my delight, I can see everything on my deck through the kitchen window but because of the angle, lighting, etc., the birds outside cannot see me inside even with kitchen the lights on.
98% of my shots are from the tripod in this position. Typically I use zoom levels anywhere between 100mm and 300mm. The key to catching action is using the sequential (multiple) picture mode.
Time of the day dictates lighting conditions. The big tree overhanging the deck gives the birds an ideal place to sit while waiting for other birds to finish at the feeder. However, the tree also gives the squirrels easy access.
But, if I were designing a home bird shooting setup...this has all the features I'd want.
Of course...having the birds in the first place helps a great deal :-)
Thanks for all your wonderful support,
Bill:)
