20+ Incredible Photos Of Birds Caught On A Hidden Camera In A Bird Feeder
Some bird photos are lucky, and some are the result of a very clever setup. This collection falls into the second category, with Lisa M. turning a simple feeder into a hidden camera trap for some surprisingly beautiful backyard visitors.
After moving from Germany to Michigan, Lisa noticed the birds around her and decided to capture them up close without disturbing them. She used a high-tech feeder, hid the camera behind it, and relied on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth shutter technology to stay out of sight.
The result is a sharp little gallery of Blue Jays, Cardinals, Grackles, and more, and the shots get better as the list goes on.
