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

Nice composition with the cardinal looking out from the branches.

I like the little red buds matching the colour of the bird..

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.

nice capture here, shame nature grows branches over what we want to shot sometimes!

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