I got out with my buddy Joe yesterday and we hit a couple of the usual haunts. The birds were out in good numbers, as well as in a wide variety of species. Here are some of the Northern Cardinal images. I'll save the other species for future posts.

I wasn't sure about posting this image because of the cluttered background. I'll let you decide. :)

These are sensational Harv. I have no problem with the background on the last one. I've seen much worse, especially in some of my own photos. ;-)a

Wow...stunning shots. Some of the best I've seen of the Northern Cardinals. Outstanding work as always Harvey. All simply perfect.


Best regards

I'd love to observe your technique, Harv. Our cardinals perch in bushes and move frequently. Maybe you've trained yours to pose. Beautiful shots.

Great series but #3 caught my eye for the way her tail feathers follow the line of what she is perched on.

Beautiful photographs, Harvey. In fact, I don't think it gets better than this. But I'm with Gary in that I LOVE the ladies.
