this is a very nice macro shot of a female cardinal. The focus is super sharp. The bird has a nice pose. The lighting is natural. The colors are soft and muted.

Thank you so very much! I just have the opertunity to shoot birds! Sometimes I shoot up to 200 shots at one sitting and have been shooting them like this for a couple of years. I guess when you do something often enough you get in practice!

Great shot! I am wondering if you can claim them as dependants, since it must cost a bundle to feed them all year! We only feed in the winter, to help the birds survive the cold. I like the catchlight very much, and the bit of refraction on the beak. Donkeyoatey

Thank you so very much! I go through fifty lbs. a month. It is a small price to pay for these fine friends to stay around here! It also provides me with plenty of photo opps!

This photograph is brilliantly focussed and the feathers are so detailed! Lovely colours too! I'm jealous this is the sort of bird you get in your garden - great stuff!

Wow Willie, great pic. What lense were you using? The detail is incredible around the eye area especially. I enjoy your work. Happy shooting.

Great up close shot, these are hard to do, I was going to say good focus on the eye, but I see you do that normally, good framing and dof, some nice work here
