Hide 'n Seek

Here's my little Cardinal friend. He likes to come around at dawn or dusk, when the lighting is best - not!

After breakfast while I'm cleaning up, I can usually hear his telltale churp and start looking for him. I have a window over my sink that faces the deck. If it's not open, then the process of opening it scares him away. So, in 40 degree temps, I leave my window open just in case he comes back and I can grab a shot. And so far, this is the best I can get - through table and chair legs! I have seen him on the feeder once before, so I'm hoping that I'll be in the right place at the right time.

Thankful Day 5:
I'm thankful that we have antibiotics so that after 3 doses for an ear infection, my son Ryan is feeling almost normal.
You caught him mid-cheep! They are impossible to catch in good light! You got him pretty well! Glad Ryan is feeling better!

Thank you all so much for taking the time to comment. He is a very vibrant Cardinal, I didn't have to mess with color at all, really just cropping.

Love cardinals but they don't seem to winter here. I have a pair (had a pair) that comes at dusk as well.
