I Can See You- Sort of

I was delighted to find my pair of cardinals today. Both the male and female were flitting about in this pine tree, but they tried to stay out of my sight. The male, with his bright red plumage, was at a disadvantage, but even so he wouldn't give me his full view. Birds rule!

They are very good at interposing a branch between themselves and the camera.

So beautifully captured with a little intrigue with the cardinal hiding behind the branch . Love the soft greens of the pine needles - such a beautiful combinations of colours and composition ! fav

@gardencat Yep! I wove in and out of the branches, but the cardinal won! :)

Great capture against the pine needles. He does have a problem to hide with his bright plumage.
