The precocious little birds fly all around me whenever I am riding around the property on my quad bike. They come so close and chirp and chatter.
But usually when I stop and pick up the camera ... well then they are gone like a shot :) Occasionally I capture one for a moment! Thank you for such awesome questions and comments on my photos
In my garden, the birds in general take off if I look at them. I can be working away on weeding and they are in the branches around me but as soon as I lift my head and look at them they take off.
