Description
Finally after three previous posts, I think this post has this little bugger all in focus:-)))
As most of you know who have been following this series, this is the male Northern Cardinal. First I think I had him oversaturated, then my DOF was shallow and he wasn't all in focus. I finally read my Olympus owners manual and figured out "metering". Net result is better lighting and therefore better focus.
Here's the link for this male's attractive mate: Easy Lady
Thanks for sticking with me on this cardinal quest.
Bill:)
A ZOOM is good.

Great shot... worth the wait. He still has that, where the worm, look in his eyes. Maybe its just the I'm the best looking bird on the block, and I know it, look.

Another fine shot! Love your bird series. There are lots of Cardianls around St. Louis, and not just baseball players. I can't seem to get these colorful little guys to sit still long enough.
