Would have been quite a shot, but the over exposed thing on the bottom ruins it. Real pity. I'd consider a tighter crop to eliminate that altogether.

My favorite bird. Cheerful, hearty, and cute. Well captured! I must say, though, that the sprig just behind him is a distraction. Still, I like it.

Predator

Accurate capture of a killer. This is why cats should NOT be allowed out. They are ruthless killers, and have played a major role in the demise of many song birds, and other native wildlife. This is a pity. I love cats...I have two, but this is senseless.

I may as well add more since I'm already upon my milk crate. It's a dangerous world out there for domestic cats. Fights with other cats, dogs, and wildlife, hit by cars, illnesses, and not to mention that they spread disease to wildlife. They've also been known to cause auto accidents due to people's attempts to avoid hitting them.

Well, I hope I haven't offended you or others. It's certainly not my goal, but I do aim to educate.

Here's an article.

Handsome cardinal, a wee bit soft. Nicely composed, good subject, and cooperative to pose so nicely!

Love the golden hue, but I'd like to either see more detail in the birds, or complete silhouette.

Nice portrait, but the overall blue cast is unnatural.
