1st off this is not a sport for the faint of heart. You need nevers of steel and a ton of patience.

I find it hard to believe I've been doing this for a number of years now and I still get a kick out of it. You do need a lot of patience letting the little birds get use to you hanging around their feeders but after awhile they get use to me and start landing on my fingers. I think my arm that hold the Kodak z812 gets the most workout just trying to hold it up so that when it happens I can try for the shot.
