Northern Cardinal
Female_

This girl was playing smart at the water hole, she found her this little perch and set there for quite some time watching and looking around.

I really like cardinals and I was able to get alot of images of them at the ranch.
Enjoy!

very nice-a little less exposition could have been better-I guess.

Hello Tabatha, very beautiful your cardinal female, of course :o)
I hope you don't be ungry with me if I tell you that perhaps with a little bit of less exposition, could be better the second half of the picture.
Cheers,
Cristina

Hi Tabatha,
Outstanding shot of this Cardinal and you have captured a fine pose. Very neat and sharp image with lovely colours. The natural lighting and exposure are perfectly handled and the DOF is precise. Great chosen POV and the composition is superb. Kudos.

Hi Tabatha,
Fine work with this Cardinal. Lovely pose, nicely composed, good focus, and the BG is verry pretty. Well done
TFS, Richard

An excellent, excellent capture. Good pose, position and depth of field. A fine photograph.

Since you are a birder I have a question: Why did the worm get up so early? Ans: So he could 'flip the bird'! :)

Hi Tabatha,
This is a sweet girl! What a beauty! I like this pose, tones of colors, details and exposure. I like those birds a lot but for a reason, I can't photographed them this winter, they are so easily afraid :( Well seen and well done! Lucky you! :)
