Nice shots, I like the 1st cardinal most. Bright red sure stands out against a dull gray background !

Beautiful series. What kind of woodpecker is that?

Thanks very much! That's a Yellow-belly Sapsucker, MS.

Thanks, Alex.

The Oly does it justice. Some SP570 users are having difficulty with reds. I must be doing something right

I have yet to see and photograph any cardinal. You're doing much better than I do

Thanks for sharing !

That's because cardinals don't even make it up here to British Columbia...

I really like that juvenile YB sapsucker image.
