RE: announcing the 23rd guess the shadow contest!!

Meditation chamber......hmmmmmmmm.....adding in outdoor meditation area (no shadow visible).

I'm all out of luck for the Ester bird. I haven't seen those where I live. Also, for some reason, birds have never cooperated with my camera. I either can't get clean shots, or if one is present, I am without my camera. I've been 6 feet away from hawks here and could have got some really good shots but did not have my camera during several events like that.

Happens all the time, birds are finicky creatures lol. I have had to wear cardboard boxes to take bird photographs. However, the feeling is amazing when you get clean images. I love eagles and hawks, Love taking pictures of them in flight.
Good luck with your Ester bird.
fins a slot in the main tower for your meditation chamber .. this exercise needs a lot of concentration lol

😂 You wear cardboard boxes to take bird photos? I'm trying visualize this. How did you come up with that and do the birds relax more when they see a box shape instead of a human shape?

Eagles are a very rare sight in this country. I've never seen them in person. There are many hawks here and I always stop to watch them. They are so beautiful in flight, like magic.

🤣, so funny

True, they are not so comfortable with humans, cardboard boxes can move when they are looking the other way. This was especially true when I tried taking pictures of the golden oriole and the copper smith barbet. Very shy birds.

Wow, so that works well then. I've never heard of this approach, so I had to ask. I think you are more patient and knowledgeable with regard to birds. I know I am definitely not, LOL.

I am a birder without a proper birding lens .. lol so I watch and hang around them patiently.

Awwww...well you're better at it than I am. Usually, they appear to taunt me in the least expected of places, always when I am without my camera, such as last week when I saw a cardinal waiting for me at one of my favourite tree hangout spots.
