At my jelly log

I adapted a downed branch from my backyard tree to my small tripod. I cut 2 groves in it to hold the grape jelly and I installed a old camera plate so it would fit the tripod clamp. Orioles and Catbirds look funny eating the jelly.
I set this up at Magee Marsh and when warblers are few we sit in our chairs and shoot the log. This is where the Brown Thrasher came with in 14 feet of my 600mm F:4g VR and D3s. All these were fill flashed using a SB-910.

All nice shots, Larry, -sharp- good job! Sticky bills must be uncomfortable- did you leave a couple of napkins out, too?
