Cardinal

Not the sharpest picture so I doctored it up a little bit on picmonkey. These guys are so elusive. They come in the early morning around dusk and don't stay for long. I only got 3 shots fired off before he flew off. One day he was actually on the bird feeder but my camera was no where near me. So, they are not too big after all :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Cool! Looks like you snapped it sitting in your screened porch.

@ljm Nope, from my kitchen window!

Tara, I love the texture and composition on this one!

@rob257 Thanks Rob. I love how I can take a so-so shot and edit it with picmonkey :) I'm determined to get a better shot of these cardinals though, they are tricky!

I love these birds, they are so exotic looking and fierce.

I had a pair over the summer that also liked to come at dusk. But my camera can't handle the longer distance from my window to the bird feeder. Nice shot!
