I was happy to get a shot of a house finch on my perch. The head position isn't god enough to make it a portfolio candidate though. Little birds never stop moving so it's tough to capture the perfect "pose". (My backyard, Morrison, IL)
Here's a cell phone photo of my set-up. It's just a twig duct-taped to a light stand and placed over a hanging platform feeder. The birds often stop on the perch to scout for predators before going down to the feeder. I hide in the blind with my camera on a tripod and wait.
