Photographing Birds 



are generally more satisfactory, as there are 

 numerous difficulties attending the hunting of 

 birds with a telephoto outfit. 



When the young are hatched, making pic- 

 tures of various phases of their bringing up, 

 the feeding, etc., is the most interesting of 

 pastimes. An amount of patience and skill 

 may be required to secure pictures with the 

 birds in natural attitudes and free from alarm. 

 By working with one nest day after day, and 

 following up developments, gradually getting 

 the birds accustomed to the camera, friendly 

 relations, with profitable results to the photog- 

 rapher, may be established.
