Figure 7-2: Photographing small birds at a feeder.

Switch to continuous focus mode. When you're photographing a bird that's flitting from one part of a bird feeder to another, the camera will update focus as the bird moves.

Use image stabilization if your camera or lens has it.

Use a tripod. A tripod steadies the camera. Even with a fast shutter speed, any operator movement can result in an image that isn't tack sharp. If you use a tripod, disable image stabilization.

Photographing small birds in the wild

Birds come in all shapes and sizes. The smaller fine-feathered friends can be very interesting subjects for photography. You find small birds in many places. The best place to photograph them is in their natural habitat. For example, this catbird was photographed in Corkscrew Swamp (see Figure 7-3).
