I've posted about this before, and it sounds like a total joke, but I swear it's not! Get nice and close. Get your chicken in frame. Then make a fart noise with your mouth. The chicken will throw its head up and hold still for the microsecond you need to take a shot.

Also, take 1,000 photos. Every good photo I have means many, many deleted ones. Chickens bounce around like atoms. It's very challenging.

Its hard to get good pictures of birds. I didn't have good camera up until last year and I would take photos with my iPad and they looked awful.

This is with my new pixel.

An action shot! Holy cow. Please don't make me leave the apple ecosystem for better chicken photos.

That looks incredible.

Once you get the hang of taking photos, it gets easier. I make sounds and move my hands to get the chicken to look were I want it to.

This one, the hen was sitting and I bent low and slowly moved my phone closer, being as still as I could so she wouldn't get up.

That's the 2nd one I get. I can NEVER get photos like that. I sometimes get frustrated when they move to fast and make it come out blurry.
