Description
This adorable female cardinal perched outside my kitchen French doors during The Big Blizzard of '09, December 19, 2009, clearly a bit kerflustered by all the snow and wind. But just to her side is a huge bird feeder, filled to the brim with tasty goodies for her and her family. Focal distance 300mm. Image taken with the Nikon D300 and the 70-300mm vr Nikon lens.
"Snow Surprise" tied for Second Place in the "Cardinals In Snow" contest August 7, 2014. My congratulations to the other winners!
NOTE: FINE ART AMERICA WATERMARK WILL NOT APPEAR ON PURCHASED IMAGE.
