Spring

It feels like spring has truely arrived. I am extremely happy about it. We are still getting lots of rain, but that is normal for this time of year. We will be seeing a lot more variety of birds soon.

Not As Bright: But As Beautiful

DSC_5591.jpeg

This cardinal was a lot of fun. I saw her as we hiked torward the River J. Shook Bikeway Bridge. She was setting on the wood rails. As I lifted the camera to photograph her .. well, you know what happens. She flew away.

It looked like she just flew into the grass, so I walked over to the side of the trail to take a look. Nothing. I didn’t want to give up, so I waked to the large dropoff where the bridge begins. Looking down I saw nothing,

Suddenly saw her in a nearby tree. This time she waited long enough for me to capture a few photos. The female cardinal is not nearly as bright as the male, but they are beautiful.

A Sinister Look

While the female cardinal is not nearly as bright as the male, they are still a very cool bird.

This is the same bird but the photo was taken minutes apart. She looks back at me in the second shot with a sinister look. Cute.
