sounds to me like you were " I had my camera by my side, spent 3 hrs in the garden"! gardening e.g moving about, no no, just sit quietly on the veranda if you move about its more likely they went elsewhere

Yes, but I don't have daylight til next weekend...
I come home in the dark from work... it was today or wait til next weekend, and pray it doesn't rain...
Will take my camera in the car to work... Saw a beaut tree that appeared to have white dots on it... and it was covered with sulphur crested cockatoos in the city the other week... but of course, I did not have my camera at the time.. damn..
Merriweather: Well I did that... I had my camera by my side, spent 3 hrs in the garden, and not one bird except the magpie came visiting.. I could hear birds chirping, but I couldna see them
There were kookaburras... but they were laughing down the street, and the parrots, but they were skittish, never stopped still long enough...
I am not having much luck...
New camera and all my luck has been
Yet I have a master plan!!!! Little road trip today and we will see if it will work
Me on beach thinking I have taken a shot of bird. It turned out I was running on the wrong setting. Of course Yet if you look at beginning of video you will see the bird I was chasing
Merriweather: Definitely, a pat on the back... do I throw a peanut in as well... (jest jokin Happy)
Seriously tho... its hard to take a vid of a moving object... and you have done brilliantly..
Better n me anyways... night hun, enjoy your day... good luck with your camera...
It was not suppose to be a video tho wrong setting once more. And I am no Baywatch runner. Tho this week I have been giving the beach goers quite a show trying to get pics. According to Robp instructions to you we are suppose to sit still, very still....guess running is not the way
Sometimes I think I might be catching onto the new camera. But the moment is fleeting. My subject for this event. A very trickey bluejay Oh god the lady with camera again look I will just turn back and hide from her in this bush
Not working I will play possum and maybe she will go away!!!
