Then I stood as still as a statue as if part of the scenery. After I had captured pictures at that close distance, I moved away and left her/him alone. (yes, it is an Anna's - don't know if it is a female.) Hi All,

Did you digiscope these, or use a large lens? I can't imagine mama would let you get that close. Is this a female Anna's? Thanks so much for sharing.
