Another wonderful shot of a cardinal. It is standing out from the nicely blurred background in the most excellent way. Think however I would have got rid of the twig on the left side. Perhaps also the pines at the top.
Your photo is so very sharp and well defined, and the eye is standing out clear and bright. Great colors of course, and also very good exposure.
The bird is well placed within the frame, and has given this photo a good balance. This is a well taken shot with an excellent DOFF.

Good capture of this beauty,
we have many of them, here, in Wisconsin, and they certainly are vibrant against the snow.
Good focus, blurred background.
Good side view, catching glint in his eye.
Well done.

Beautiful Bird! Love the vibrant red orange color with the black face. He sure shows character! Like that the background is blurred. Makes the point of interest the bird, as it should. He's brilliant!

I would've freaked out if I got the clarity of this beautiful bird! Look at the detail in the feathers, the cute little tuft on his head! The eye capture is riveting. He's looking right at you too! So, he now's he's a model now..
Good lighting, like the shine upon his eye and the branch of the pine tree he is sitting in. Nice muted green background..Makes the red of his little body pop right out, along with the black markings. A wonderful shot! Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful photo of the cardinal. I wish we had these bird out west. Never seen one in person. Your focus is perfect. Framing is grand and I love the shot.

This is a beautiful cardinal that is well positioned on the branch. Unlike most of your bird shots, this one is not as finely focused. The blurriness of the the branch in the foreground is a distraction. The pine needles in the background are also a distraction.

Sure wish I had these guys in my backyard. A beautiful cardinal that you captured here. Nice feather detail and the pine branch and needles frame it nicely. Colors are so pretty. Just an excellent photo of this beautiful bird.
