Rhapsody in Red
You’all knew I was going to Tractor Supply Store… Well, I went and bought a lot of seed mix for my birds, I also purchased a new larger size feeder and a metal bracket for the deck. I also got the new garden hose and box that I keep in the patio.
Then I had a couple of photo sessions with the birds, it was glorious time! I used my Canon 60D this time instead of my Canon Mark II. I was satisfied with the results, with the sun shinning so bright I had no problem to get good shots.
I’m very happy to see a good number of birds lately:
- – Chipping Sparrow
- – Field Sparrow
- – Song Sparrow
- – White-throated Sparrow
- – Eastern Towhee
- – Northern Cardinal
- – Mourning Dove
- – Brown-headed Nuthatch
- – American Goldfinch
- – House Finch
- – American Crow
This post features the Northern Cardinal (M) hence the title.
