Arboretum cardinal

We always hear a lot of birds at the National Arboretum but rarely ever see them. Tim, however, caught sight of this cardinal flitting around the tree and managed to get a shot of him before he flew away.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Good shot of Mr. Cardinal who seems not to want his picture taken.

With that pose, he looks like he might be in charge of the place.
