Getting Ready

More fun facts that I just learned: cardinals mate between March and September, and they build their nests in bushes and dense shrubs low to the ground. That's exactly where I spotted this fellow, and within moments the female popped her head out, too!
Wow, a beautiful close up and so well detailed. Fav.

@tinley23 I love them! But I'm jealous of your robins, Lesley, so maybe we're even :)

Such a gorgeous and colourful little bird! Beautiful and detailed close-up and a great to find their natural habit!

Such a nice capture of this handsome fellow. I've heard that they like to be in or around cedar trees but I can't say if that's true.

@ludwigsdiana Hi Diana. The cardinals were in a bush about 2 feet (60 cm) from the ground, but the bush was on a hill, so I could see them from below without having to squat low. As Wendy @wendyfrost said, it's good to know where they will possibly be nesting. Maybe I will be lucky enough to capture some babies later on :)
