Lovely Little Lady
I think this is a juvenile female cardinal, judging from the color of the bill and from her childlike curiosity, hanging around the feeder longer than usual and looking around with intense interest and not a whole lot of nervousness as is evident in more mature birds. A beautiful trusting little girl!

She is so gorgeous Bonnie. The background really makes her stand out so nicely.
You know, when in CO…. we were at a botanical garden. They had a list of birds in the area, and one was a bunting of sorts, but I can’t recall which kind. Nor did I ever see a bunting. How neat that would have been.

beautiful shot, excellent detail and that catchlight in eye is perfect, is this part of the family you watched outside your window?

You know, Chris, I was wondering the same thing; this could well be my Teensy girl! She hangs around the feeders more than most and is very curious. Sure would like to think it’s the same baby I watched from egg to fledgling. Thanks for asking and sure did enjoy your interview with Gigi!

Now that is one fantastic capture of one of my favorite birds. A very lovelt little lady. Faved.
Christopher E...
why thank you maam, and thanks for the very nice comment on it, sure made me blush and speechless…lol
i bet this is one of your little one’s, her age shows about the timeline on it, and they would be looking like this. im sure she was watching you watching them, so would be used to you being around, now lets hope she doesnt get that “shy” attitude and run from you once she really starts to show her deep rich colors
