    Great captures of cardinals. I'm still waiting for my opportunity for a good shot of a cardinal. They are all over the place where I live but I can't get one to pose for me in such a way that there are no obstructions.

    The other bird looks like a type of sparrow but it is all puffed up or something. Is it a sparrow? Nice shot either way.

    We have so many cardinals here, it's not hard to get a good shot. They are the state bird of Indiana.

    I'm not sure on the sparrow. I though it was a Yellow Crowned Kinglet, but after looking through some pictures, I'm still not sure.

    Thanks for looking.

    Almost! Actually I put sticky glue on it.rolleyes1.gifIt's part of a large forsynthia bush and on the ground out in front of it I've put seeds. The bush is just full of birds and I sit and wait until they hop down to that stick on their way to the seed on the ground.mwink.gif Nice clear shot. I was wondering when someone was going to comment on it.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
