Here's another picture of the cardinal. There were actually about 2 or 3 other male cardinals in the tree with this guy. It was pretty cool.

Friday, January 20, 2012 - While I was cutting a large roast into two smaller pieces, I saw a whole bunch of birdies in the crab apple tree.

So, I grabbed my camera with the telephoto lens and tried to take pictures through the window. Believe it or not, this was one of the better ones.

It's really hard to find smaller objects when you're looking through a 300 mm lens. But, he does look like he's hunkered down for the duration.
