Description There is a new Indian restaurant next door to my office, and the owner hug some feeders on the tree just over the fence between our buildings where I have to go to smoke during the day. Today I brought the camera to catch some of the birds.

That was behind my old office.. there was an Indian restaurant next door in the hotel and it had an 80 foot long awning over their walkway.. it was just far enough to blur out.. I thought it looked cool!.. Thanks Kimmy

I love the pink on the background! The sparrow is an rare (?) animal here, so it's nice to see a sparrow again

That restaurant has a really ugly sidewalk awning. I didnt even notice it when I shot the picture, but I was very happy how the flash muted the color of the awning and softened it and made it into a pretty background.. I was very lucky! Thanks!

Your neighbour is a tree hugger? Anyway, try a net or a grenade launcher for catching birds, cameras just blind them with the flash, but they can still be a real bugger to bag even when they can't see!

well, if you're looking for the over-kill method, try lighting the tree on fire after casting poison tiped barbed wire netting above it.
