[QUOTE="wev, post: 305643, member: 16783"] Though I have posted a number of feeder shots, I don't really like them -- the things are just too ugly and too red. I have also noticed, when shooting with a flash (onboard, 1/4 power usually), they get very reactive at the feeder, but could care less when at an actual plant. They also don't like having cameras pointed at them -- I have stood 5 feet away, raising and lowering my hands and they paid no attention and kept feeding. I raise my camera up and they flee in a flash. I have wondered if there is something about the black body and front glass that spooks them -- a paparazzi thing? In the mid nineties today, so will have to wait till dusk to see what I can shoot. Thanks for the thread [/QUOTE]
