Finally a Taker

I mentioned in my commentary for the "Bully of the Feeder", that I had placed a pine bough on the top of a shepherd's hook but the birds were being slow to land on it. Well, last night winter returned and dumped some snow. That was all I needed to happen to get the birds to get past their hesitancy.
Thank you for all your gracious comments and favs placing my Blue Jay on the PP!
beautiful focus and detail - and what a gorgeous colour

Just took them a little while to get use to it. That green adds so nicely. Love your cardinal shot - beautiful lighting and close-up. Fav

@alophoto - I wasn't sure what your comments meant. I just picked up my phone and was checking my emails when I was a number of comments for this photo. Looking at it on the phone the color does look more russet. I don't know why because it looks very red on my monitor which I calibrate regularly with ColorMunki.
