I am new to the Backyard Feeder scene (1 Viewer)

I just started up my feeders when I moved to the country about 6 weeks ago
I am not at all a very good photographer but I can get some descent pics of my bird feeders.It took my awhile to figure out what the birds liked and the different types of birds that I have
I have the hardest time getting my indigo buntings to warm up to the camera like the Goldenfinch do.
Are they just nervous kind of bird? Or am I holding my mouth wrong
I am able to photo most of the birds at my feeders but as soon as I click that button off they go although I have some pretty cool wing span photos of one bunting but it is to blurry to post .
anyone have a good tip of the day for me :hippy:
 
Hi and welcome to semi-controlled chaos called the Forum! :eek!:
Helen's right... the biggest part of the photography thing is patience. The other thing for me is to make sure I have digital camera! That way you don't waste so much film on the shots that don't turn out. You can just delete them and be rid of the evidence! ;) Besides, some birds are just naturally more jumpy than others.
Hope you post some of your shots on here. I'd love to see an indigo bunting!
