2. Apparently, the low light is plenty! It's a great photo, my dear Mousetoescamper.

I have to admit that Cardinals aren't my favorite bird, but this one is magnificent!

4. Thanks!

Cardinals are very common here. I see several on any given day.

I'll shoot anything that moves (or doesn't)

5. When I'm shooting birds (rarely these days!) I prefer them sitting, looking beautiful!

6. They seldom cooperate.

Hey, we take what we can get!
