Success

Looks like my cardinal friend found something to munch on in my neighbor’s messy yard after all.

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

Nice and sharp on this one. Like it a lot, Helen.
Is this taken with the 300 PF?

They're pretty clever at finding something to eat. They go into my potted plants hunting for snack. :) Great shot of him, Helen. Really loaded with details! V

Excellent close up nice detail and looks like he does have a treat while perched so nicely for you.
Nice catchlight and very nice bokeh 300 delivers nicely.
