Well I was on my deck today after the snow and noticed a red Cardinal on the ground eating seeds that the other birds had dropped from the feeder. Quickly grabbed my D300 and 70-300VR and took these shots:

    he looks like he's waiting for you to toss more seeds in the second shot:D

    After living in the Hudson River Valley for 30 years I can assure you he IS waiting for more seeds!

    Nice shots, they ALMOST make me wish I was back there for a visit. It's going to be cold here today (only 60°F) but will get up to 80° for Christmas.

    Very cool. Love the cardinals here, especially in the snow.
