The setup I have started to use to try and get some decent and natural looking bird photos without having to worry about small twigs or anything getting in the way, I have setup this branch near my bird feeders and have put bark butter on this branch to attract and get them to spend some time on the branch so I can some shots off before they fly away. So far it seems to be working out well, just wish something besides the Mockingbird and some Carolina Chickadee's would show up. Patience is the key I guess.

I dont know why I didnt think it of sooner, I have feeders very near to all my trees and usually sit and watch for them to land on the tree limbs which they, but always have some small twigs that get in the way of some part on the birds. So far really liking this setup.
