MRS. CARDINAL

Yahoo! The cardinals have found the feeder – well, the female has, anyway. The one time I noticed her, she stayed at the back – but I’m just happy to get a shot of her! My wishes for the new feeder are coming true! She’s more of a light tan with just a touch of redness, not this white the lighting created. (More to learn about focusing my camera.) It’s been fun to keep an eye on the feeder today. It’s had goldfinches, this cardinal and the bold squirrel. I can’t believe how many times the male goldfinch stops by – he eats constantly. The female didn’t stop by until after 8:00 this evening. Dad suggests maybe the male is ordering carry out and he’s taking some home for the lady goldfinch. :-)
