Yea.. it's hard to shoot the cardinals.. at least mine . when they're close enough for a lot of details..they're either in a dark area or have branches between them and me.. I will get him one of these days

It's so cute! I like the pose.
I've never actually seen a cardinal before, besides in pictures and on television. I would like to see one.

They're very pretty , but hard to shoot. This one taunts me and lands in the dark places... I wanna catch him in the sun

Do they not remain still for very long? A lot of birds don't. They're skittery creatures.

Cardinals in particular are not too tolerant of people..some of the others dont seem to mind if you dont move too close, but these ones just scoot

Perhaps that's why I've never seen one. I'm not quite sure if we actually have any, though.

Nicely done. We have a cardinal that comes to our bird feeder quite often, but he's so skittish, I haven't been able to get a shot of him.

That's been my problem too.. when he does sit still he lands in a place with no light or blocked by something.. little creep mocks me.. I will catch him..I posted that journal I have up to prove it CAN be done to myself ..lol

I know what you mean. I usually see him from my kitchen window and if it's in the morning, then there's way too much back light to get a decent picture. I did manage to get a picture of a cardinal playing in the birdbath on a hot summer day. I'll have to go back through my pictures and find it. I don't think it turned out all that great, but I had fun watching him playing in the water.

More likely thumbing his nose at me. I've been trying to get a clean , well lit shot of him for a couple of years. They're bright red!

Always the way. They do seem a popular bird in your area, so I am sure you will get another opprotunity.
