Isn’t She Lovely

I took several photos of this female Northern Cardinal but I couild not find a location where I couild get a clear shot. I removed the offending branch, but it never looks right so .. here is the photo. She was large as life and so beautiful.

Later I went back and tried to edit it out .. not too bad. That is the second photo.

Later I saw the photo Teresa captured from a much better angle. That is the thrid photo.

Sing It

Sparrows are not the most colorful birds, but there is someting about them that draws me to them. This one is a Field Sparrow. They are my favorite. I think it's their curiosity and beautiful song. They do have a cool beak, but as you can see, there is not a lot of other color. Sing it my feathered friend.

So Much Better

This is a beautiful photo of an Indigo Bunting. He was in a small bush just off the trail and took off as we approached. I was lucky .. he only flew a short distance and stopped. The lighting was nearly perfect and I shot several photos. Special thanks to the universe for a great photo opportunity.
