a feeder just like this. Your photo is the very reason I never even picked up the camera to make a portrait of him.
There is no way I would have succeeded this well.
Congrats on the photo and the lens.

because it's kind of a nasty, drizzly day I set up my tripod inside, opened the window, and waited.
Kind of lazy I know but you have to put up with all kinds of stuff to get the shot.Ha!
