Matching leaves

Westerville, Ohio

A female Northern Cardinal, backlit by the early morning sun, perches
in front of matching late-fall leaves in Blendon Woods Metro Park near
Columbus, Ohio. A second image of a female Cardinal is below. Additional
bird images are in my Birds and Animals gallery.

Hi Pat. I think it is because of the wild background bokeh that your bird here has such a disdainful attitude. Or maybe that food in his beak has a bad after-taste. In either case, this fine capture is a real attention-getter. Best regards, Michael.
