Hi Baja. Thank you for the nice comments.

The cage was about 8 feet away. The post was about 10. The hummingbird feeder about 15 and the sundial 20 feet or so.

I bought the cage about three years ago online from the Bluebirdnut Cafe. It is no longer available, unfortunately. They have replaced it with a larger one that is round in shape. Both feature a wire grid with squares about 1 1/4 inches apart. Just big enough to let bluebirds and smaller birds in. It was designed to hang from a hook or a tree but I choose to set it on the railing of the deck with velcro.

I have several Canon cameras. Most of these were shot using a Canon 1D Mark III with a Canon 400mm f/4 lens. Some (those at the sundial) were shot with a Canon 40D with a Canon 200mm f/1.8 lens.

Thanks Duc. Me too. Here is another sundial shot.
