These always seem to take off at my slightest movement. Told Bret(Oldjacksparrows) I wouldn't post my redbellies after looking at his excellent series but shucks, in most every group, there are "also-rans".

Excellent set Rog. Love the Red bellies! Cardinals are strange birds I get some that are, like yours, very wary. Then I get a pair that think they own the joint. Go figure. :)

Hello Rog, those are some fine looking Red-belly's, skittish here too, the one I just caught has been flying off on me all year. Very nice set my friend!

Thank you, Craig. Don't believe I've had a cardinal w/ an attitude visit here.

Thanks much, Carol.

Thank you, Cheryl. That is kind of the underlying reason for this post-they always were far away or way away when I was out. This guy w/ his bright red head must have been feeling pretty pleased w/ himself. (You know us guys;).)

Thanks, Bret. For a large bird, they sure are timid.
