Mr. Cardinal

I didn't plan on a bird photo today but this fellow was posing so nicely I couldn't resist.

He is modeling for you.

[Milanie]

I love the cardinals when you get them on a branch without twigs in their face - the red against the green leaves is beautiful.

[Richard]

Sometimes you have to take the opportunity when it is there. I know I have many times. Excellent capture!

[Dyan Stevens]

So nice of him to do so as he made a great subject.

[Issi Bannerman]

My favourite birds. Love this capture!

[Irene Marshall]

And a lovely pose it is Fav.

[Jenfurj]

Such a pretty colour. Red normally means danger in nature, but not sure if he would be.

[Kate Goring]

He is rather handsome. I love his red colour against the green. Great shot.
