This is my first try at shooting these and I must say, what a challenge it is. Of the 40 or so shots I took, this is the only one thats even close to being sharp. Was a lot of fun trying as there were 2 to 3 flying around and kept me busy just trying to focus. I was able to stand about 6 feet away from the feeder which was awesome. They didn't seem to mind me to much, in fact 1 got within a foot of my left ear as he was checking me out. Will try for more tomorrow ; )
