You Can't See Me

Our neighbor puts out food in a bird feeder and I have been trying to catch a Cardinal that comes around for months. He was sitting in our Crape Myrtle and this was through the kitchen window but I am happy with it for now.

@adobewaters I am thrilled that you like it so much,Adobe. Thanks!!

This is so cool – cool is my word of the day! :) I love the cardinal among those branches... it almost looks like he is in a big open weave basket. :)

@marilyn I like your word for the day! ;~} I was hesitant to post it because of the branches but may never get another shot so decided to go ahead with it!

Great capture

[Deb]

Wonderful capture! I miss the cardinals :(

[Diane]

Nice shot! We have 2 pairs of cardinals in our yard and I haven't been able to get a good picture of them. Either they are shy or scared of my cat...who's so old he couldn't catch a thing!

Pretty as a picture

[katy]

@morrisroos Thanks,Don. I appreciate it!

[katy]

@deburahiru Thanks, Deb. I love their color. By miss do you mean they haven't come back this spring or they are not where you live anymore.

[katy]

@eudora LOL! Probably a combination of both. I have found these are a little skitterish when there are people around but through the window worked for me on this one. Thanks Diane!

[katy]

@peterdegraaff ;~} Thanks so much,Peter!

[Deb]

@grammyn Not where I live anymore :(
We had lots when we lived in Virginia.

[katy]

@deburahiru I grew up in the Northwest and never saw any until we moved to the East either. they are such a beautiful bird aren't they?

[C and LJ]

Nice! I tried to shoot (with a camera) two cardinals the other day. Never could.

[katy]

@cluvlj That has been my dilemma and why I went with a partial because I may NEVER get e whole shot! Thanks, C

[Debbie Orlando]

FAV right away for me. The color pop of the cardinal, the composition thru the branches and how they soften the shot...really nice Katy

[katy]

@debsphotos Debbie, thanks, so much! I am so glad you like it!

[Jennifer Wearing]

Wow- the branches really make the shot because he looks like he's being very cagey and eying you off to make sure you don't come too close :-)

[katy]

@jennwearing LOL! I was thinking the same thing! Thanks,Jennifer!

[Brenda]

Oh My! What a beautiful cardinal! Great shot!

[katy]

@thesandbox5 Thankns, Brenda. It will probably be the only one I ever get.
