Female Cardinal

By Our Pond

A very cold morning for us and the birds around 15 degrees F , this young lady was trying to get some of the suns warmth from the rocks by the pond.
She flew as soon as she heard the shutter on the camera.

For best resolution view in the original setting.

Nikon D80 ,Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF AF-S
1/500s f/4.5 at 300.0mm iso100 full exif

She looks tired and weary Nestor. However, she would be flattered at how good she looks here. The rust toned color theme is the perfect augment to warm her appearance. Also, I really like the feather to rock contrast. Striking image - g
