Cooper Marsh - Lancaster. I worked with this little beauty off and on for 30 minutes. It became accustomed to me and allowed close approach; so close that I had to set my telephoto to its macro setting. I waited a week trying with multiple birds at several locations before hitting pay dirt today. There is no feeder present.
