A Cardinal, one of the birds I've always wanted at my bird feeders, but have never seen one. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/f/fā€¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Sad)" /> The picture is very good, and the quality also good. The background does blur, but I won't blame you for that.

The snow behind him makes the red feathers stand out nicely. The desired angle also has a good effect. I'm wondering, did you have to zoom in to get this shot?

Beautiful bird, and very good choice for a photograph. He doesn't seem to mind having his picture taken. Our chubby friend seems quite content to sit and munch away. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/lā€¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="" title="LOL" />

Wonderful shot, and I'd like to see more.

Wow...thank you so much for your critique I did have to zoom to get a close shot ,
and Cardinals love black oil sunflower seeds.....if you put them in your feeders you should get some of these in your yard.

I do have to get more bird food, I realized that the other day that the birds had eaten all of it. I'll give that a try.

let me know how it turns out....give it a few days after you put out the black oil sunflower seed for the cardinals to find it. put out a little at the same time each day after the start showing up and they will be there at the same time every day .

Thanks again! I'm going to try to get a big bag so I don't run out so quickly.

Lovely colours

I would have taken the picture from a lower point of view, to make the bird look a bit more majestic, haha. But I suppose that would be hard as it probably wouldn't sit still and pose
