Your captures of these birds are extraordinary, fine shooting... the resolution and detail on that cardinal is dead on.

You have the same birds posted here that I have been chasing all week :)... I just got back from looking for my grouse and saw a Hermit Thrush & Winter Wren... and no photos. I don't see the cardinal here as they are rare in these parts.

Nice pictures!

I really enjoy watching Nuthatches when they visit, but I have yet to see any of them this year, yet.

Thanks Levina....we tend to overlook the sparrows, but they are great birds to photograph.

Spoke too soon. Just had a white breasted pay me a visit. Manage to get a couple good shots of it while it was moving from one feeder to the next and down for a drink of water.
