Eastern Bluebird
As a lifelong birder, the transition to bird photography has always been about trying to capture each species in all its glory and with a touch of habitat. Although I enjoy the out-of-the-box and action photography, my favorite bird image is still a beautiful specimen on an appropriate perch. I often find this type of photography can be much harder than any other kind. Getting a bird to land on a selected perch can be quite a challenge. Over the past 20 years I have been developing many tips and tricks for attracting birds to land right where I want them. First I start with a vision of how I want each species to look in the final image and work backwards from there.
