Actually, both momma and papa cardinal were down in the brown flower pot - the female came up first - then out popped the male! Hmmm! Will try to catch up tomorrow if I get these 250+ pageant pictures done by then. Never again.
I am just amazed at all your wonderful bird shots . . . you have a special touch for capturing them at just the right moment. Your bird and squirrel shots are my inspiration to get some feeders and start working on capturing some of those special nature moments.
