Through the Needles

I find that the female cardinals are very shy. I usually have to shoot them through the glass door or through the pine needles. I am very blessed to have a lot of pine trees for these lovely ladies to hide in.

    Lovely shot Kerri
    The female is really shy and kind of hard to take. I love the rich colors of this photo.

    We usually think of the males as the pretty ones, but she is so pretty sitting perched there among the needles.
