This female Cardinal was in the yard and at the feeder this morning. When she went to the feeder a male came by and fed her some seeds.

Very nice series here Paul. The light is very interesting, very cool in the first two shots and there is wonderful detail in the feathers, nice catclight in both shots.The 3rd shot is a sweet capture. My understanding is that this is part of the courtship behaviour this species is noted for. Very nice!

Well done Paul, you are getting better and better with each new series. The first two shots are perfect and the last is very sweet and a great behavior shot.
