		| | Looks like the camera locked focus on the tree, not the bird. Good composition, though. |

		| | Classic cardinal, hiding behing the twigs and limbs.  I wish they would just come out of there so we can get some uncluttered photos.  Nice colors  and focus though.  Good Job. |

		| | Kind of like the birds around my house. They hide in thick trees like this instead of perching on an isolated branch with a nice distant background. |

		| | This is exactly how cardinals in my area act too. They hide in the bushes. He is a little on the soft focused side, and the branches look like they have been sharpened too much. Your colors and saturation are perfect and yor composition is wonderful. |

		| | Tough when these little boogers are buried in the branches. WIsh he was a bit more in focus, but I understand the challenges of shooting these guys. |

		| | Though the myriad of twigs and limbs make this appear a bit cluttered, I kinda like the "caged" aspect it creates. |

		| | Aw, he's cute!  Wish you had gotten a bit more sharpness and detail on his face, but he does stand out well. |
