Ahaaa... got it....

I have been noticing lately that the bird feeder is now actually being used, the girls told me they had seen one or two cardinals up there pecking at the seeds. It was a while before I witnessed the beautiful sight myself... cos I'm always so busy!!!!!

Well here it is... this time I managed to sneak to the window with my trusty camera and quickly grab a shot...it's not perfect but anyhoo I got it. I love snapping things like birds, squirrels, wildlife... it makes me feel like squealing "gotcha"... they always avoid humans so much that when you capture an image it gives you kinda of a rush like you've accomplished something.  I'm a geek I know!!!

 Mrs. Cardinal, grabbing a quick bitaroo... 
and throwing some down to lazy ass Mr. Cardinal on the lawn.
He was harder to capture but at least it's a semi-ok picture.

Love the pics. I've had a boy cardinal in my feeder, but can't get a picture. Good job. :)
