Yes, I have it mounted to my 7D on a tripod just inside the sliding door to my deck.

You could be shooting in my yard. All are nice and great capture of the Brown-headed Cowbird.

Excellent imaging Chris!
I absolutely love the Cowbird. He looks so stately w/that pose. The House Finch looks inquisitive as usual, and the Chickadee looks to be in fine shape too.
I'm now up to 39 species through my backyard in about 15 months of photographing them. I'll be interested to follow your progress.

Excellent shots Chris... the cowbird has beautiful, natural detail... don't get the House Finch here, just the chickadee, but my backyard is the Superior National Forest, so it is quite large.. :)
