Thank you! They tend to land in a few same spots, so I pick one and wait, pre-focus and shoot when they land. They often only stay for a second. 😁

I believe that a light overcast is the best lighting condition for photographing birds, by avoiding harsh shadows and faithfully bringing out colors. This cedar waxwing enjoys #perfectlighting for a #birdoftheday shot.
