Photo Shoot









Mr. Cardinal and I had a fun afternoon together. 
We've been having a little love affair going on
for two years now. ha.  He's so full of personality.
What a sweet little guy!

    1. yep, a little flirt he is
      and eats up the attention I give
      and dances as I giggle,
      doing that little jiggle.
      Maybe he's seen me sing into my spoon mic
      and liked it instead of taking a hike!
      lol...

    2. haha maybe so
      Or he thinks your one of him at your show
      After all bathing your feet in the sink
      To him could look like a bird bath I think hahaha

    1. Do you have a feeder there? That usually gets them to linger long enough for photos. :)

    1. Isn't he? He just has a twinkle in his eye that the other birds don't have!

  16. great set of photos. Our cardinals don't appear to be as orangey-red which may be, in part, due to the sun on his plumage.

    1. haha....hopefully I read his mind correctly. Maybe he was really saying, "Fill the feeder already!" lol. But it was full, so hopefully he just likes me. :)
