Thank you. I kept asking them to get together on the same branch but they refused… so I had to do what I did 😉 Yes! I loved her angle. I have another with the male cocking his head from one side to another and finally looking right at me but yanno… decisions and all that 😉
Thank you. You are lovely! 💞
No matter how much I cajoled, the young lady would not hang out with the two young lads… I had to cheat and put two photos in one 😉
So glad you do! I wanted it to look like they were looking at each other. Him with all the confidence he has and she, with a little shyness 😉
Happy New Year, John, to you and The Producer and your two-legged and four-legged girls 🙂
Is that a cardinal? I know the bird to the left of the main character is a cardinal, but that’s because I know all red. But what ‘varietal’ is the main character? Is it a Canadian cardinal? And more importantly, is there SUCH a thing as a Canadian cardinal? Which would be unlike the St. Louis Cardinals . . so yanno, there IS that.
That is indeed a female cardinal. I tried to capture the couple… unfortunately they would not hang out on the same branch no matter how much I asked them to. So I had to cheat One photo on top of the other… The female is, as per, less colourful. As for Northern Cardinals – we share with you 😉
I am the Jon Snow of bird knowledge. As in, I know nothing! Other than the fact the cardinals are from St. Louis and Arizona, the Blue Jays are from Toronto and the Orioles still suck.
I am completely clueless. I google-imaged them all! Buahahaha! You kill me. As for birds, the real ones, I only know cardinals, blue jays, robins… the ones that everyone knows, basically.
Happy New Year, Dale. 🙂

Nah. I got you beat when it comes to the clueless. Robins do not belong to a major league city, yet.
She’s a real beauty. And I think she knows it.

Oh, I do not think so. They may not belong to any major league city yet but I do not doubt you know what they are…
I think she does. She had two males cat-calling her from up high. Completely ignored them….
