This male eastern bluebird would perch on the same spot outside a nest while the female did her work going in and out with nest building materials.

 

To get this image, I setup the wifi connection on the camera to link it to my phone. That allowed me to stand back at a distance and wait for the blue bird to return to the spot. It works, but there is a considerable lag, so I wouldn't rely on it if you had to get a shot.

 

The image was taken in the morning with light reflecting off green brush in the distance. The bird was in the shade, so a flash was used to add some fill light.
