Cardinal finch, Bill?
Lovely.

Thank you Fons!  It is a "Northern Cardinal" common to our area.  Normally we see them in the branches of trees or among the shrubs and not out on an open perch.

Here is a link http://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/northern-cardinal for the Audubon.Org article on the species.  There are recordings of its songs and calls at the bottom right of the page, hearing their mating songs outside is a special treat.

Food staring at me

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.
