Description

Making his debut this week, is the newest member of the Northern Cardinal Family. Junior, who is beginning the fledging process, can now fly from branch to branch. Mama and Papa, who are very attentive, stay very close and still feed him regularly. Junior has a soft chirping voice and flutters his wings when the parents approach with food. Papa is very protective and chases away all the other songbirds that come too near. I took my shots and quietly retreated, as Mama's sharp chirps told me she was distressed by my presence. Thank you very kindly for your views and comments, I do appreciate it.

I looked at the thumbnail and thought that this was stained glass. So colorful. Outstanding presentation, photos and "framing". Dana

Oh Maria this is the most wonderful family portrait, they are all beautiful as is your photography. I try imagine you sitting there in your garden taking all these wonderful shots, and making sure all the feeding bowls are full too. I wonder what your dogs make of all the birds, if they are like mine they are really quite gentle if they ever see a fledgling in our garden. hugs Jane xx
