Text Appearing Before Image:
< OS HU 135 Another necessary adjunct to the outfit is a ball and sockettripod head. It is almost impossible to photograph most nestswithout one—l)Ut do not make the mistake of placing thecamera directly over the nest. Place it as far to one side aspossible without having the side of the nest hide any of theeggs. This gives a pleasing perspective to the photographinstead of a map of the nest, which is the result produced byplacing the camera directly over it.
Text Appearing After Image:
NEST AND EGGS OF RED-WINGED BLACKBIRD. It is quite easy to photograph the winter birds l)y providingfeeding places for them. A shelf nailed outside of the win-dow, on which is placed suet and crumbs, will attract themimmediately, and they can be photographed through the win-dow, although for best results the camera should be outsideso that the best lighted side of the subject is taken. In takingthem through the window one sees only the shadow side,therefore the detail will not show up as well. 136
