The Cardinal Rule

[Khaos]

Is to hide amongst as many branches as possible.:D

Different cardinal, about 40 seconds after I shot the top one. Sometimes you get nothing, sometimes it's handed to you.:dunno

They are super-shy, aren't they? Thats why I can really appreciate good shots, like these. Thanks for sharing.

That is funny!

Cardinals have been handed to me, but only when I have been there.

There is a small bird, tee, tiny, with a yellow head, fast little B, but gorgeous, I can't even get my lens up.

I think it's a yellow finch. I almost got one yesterday, but he was still too fast.

I normaly do use -.67 exposure, especially with ducks, but they where in an area of dense trees and I had to bump the exposure up.
