    you can laugh at this but its true...... i sometimes will stand upwards of an hour silently near the tree they land on just to let them know i wont attack them... they are not scared of me... i have been "training" them for about a year and a half now.... why do i do it? because ive found that birds can really be something to look at and to take photos of. i used to hate birds, but
    now i enjoy them. look i could go in the woods and shoot birds that are so small on the screen i wouldnt be happy with that outcome, so i decided to make friends with them so they will come to me and i still consider that birding!!!!!
