I moved the bird feeders closer to the house for photographic purposes, but it has not really worked as the birds are aware of me and my camera sooner!
A small and belated September update for 2024, where I am still, after many years' membership, on 365 Project, also now posting elsewhere but wanting...
The birds will gradually get used to you moving the feeder closer. I take many pictures from our dining room window. I started placing a chair in front of the window with a coat over the back of the chair. I will either sit backwards on the chair and rest my camera on the back to steady it or place my tripod between the chair and as close as possible to the window, The coat helps to hide my shape from the birds. Again, they will adjust to everything when they are hungry.
Love your robin!
What a beautiful capture lots of lovely detail and colour Hazel, I had to move my feeders to the bottom of the garden away from the conservatory to get them to feed:)
Thank you. I think they are suffering in the snow as today they are definitely slow to fly off.
Love your robin!
Skip, thanks for your visit and for the advice - I shall try it.
