Young Female Cardinal

The other juvenile hanging around my yard and feeder these days. Also not looking great right now, but soon she will have her shiny new feathers.

Great pic, but she's kinda scary looking.

Lovely shot , but looking rather scruffy in her go-between stage ! fav

@darchibald @beryl Yes it is not the most attractive time of year for the young cardinals, but give her a little while and she should look like this https://365project.org/gardencat/365/2023-03-07

Beautiful photo, you’ve captured her just right…I like her…

[KoalaGardens🐨]

[LManning (Laura)]

She looks embarrassed to be caught eating…

A great capture of her at this stage! (really interesting to see) I love your shallow dof to show her off! Fav

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Those awkward teenage years! Good shot.
