Too big

This young cardinal was waiting on the deck rail to get on the bird feeder, but I'm afraid he's too big. Since we have squirrels, we purchased a feeder that is weight sensitive and will close if something heavy gets on it. I may have to get another feeder for these guys :)
SOOC except for crop.

Poor little birdy. I think you will need to get another feeder. Great shot.

@httpgeffed @turning_40 @gennywren @tonyjsisti I know, poor little guy. Tpday, there were 2 cardinals hanging out underneath a table I have on the deck. I think they've figured out that the other birds are pretty messy and can glean some seeds from their droppings.

@aromatic Thanks Jane!

@espyetta Thanks MaryBeth. Good news, I saw a red cardinal actually on the bird feeder on Wednesday. Did not get a shot but I'm hopeful to get one soon.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Cardinals are hard to capture..that feeder will help though!

@espyetta They're getting braver. They come at odd times though so I have to be patient.
