View Full Version : Cardinals jfelbab 04-09-2006, 10:50 AM Quite a bunch foraging at my feeder. http://web.mac.com/jfelbab/iWeb/Site/Birds_files/PICT0707.jpg http://web.mac.com/jfelbab/iWeb/Site/Birds_files/PICT1375.jpg Kaelastreet 04-09-2006, 12:17 PM So pretty, love them. Great Pictures<smiles> Kizz OBie 04-09-2006, 07:34 PM Great shots! Inspires me to spend more time on the deck watching the feeders. paulnj 04-10-2006, 07:32 PM Nicccccccccce jfelbab 04-10-2006, 07:59 PM Thanks for the complements. Seems like I have a lot of Cardinals around this spring. I've been watching several males today hanging around the feeder. I think I'll try to get closer tomorrow. They are skittish so I'll have to play dead. :D Kaelastreet 04-10-2006, 09:43 PM Hi Jim. Suddenly, Monty Python came to mind, where you talking about Cardinals when you said they were skittish, birds, or the Vatican variety <grin> I had this image of guys in their robes and finery, standing around a clutch of food dispensing machines in a dusty, column walled stone corridor. Muttering Pope-ish things, but as you got closer, so they stopped talking, looked up, like meercats with hats on, then suddenly dived off in different directions clutching half eaten Mars Bars and Snickers. Eric Idle seems to have played an interesting part in my younger, less informed years. Kizz . jfelbab 04-11-2006, 04:42 AM Hi Jim.

Theres a challenge then - get that shot you've imagined ! I'd live to see that one, next to a bunch of cardinals flying away from the bird feeder... |
