    They are very trusting and I've managed to have them eat of my hand for a few years now, but its still a thrill when they venture forth.

    It's lovely to see that these little birds trust you enough to feed from your hands like that.

    Was it a chore to have them on one hand and use the other hand to take the photo Kildale?

    It was really as I usually do both with my right hand, feeding them with the left was strange, but fun.
