    Great shot, nice and sharp, looks like he has his tail caught. Maybe you could lighten the shadow on his lower neck?

    Thanks Sandy.
    I may try to dodge the shadow on his neck.

    Cute pose and nice and sharp where it needs to be. The additional branch in bg makes it a bit busy. It looks like a tough time of day to get a good angle on the sun light.

    Such a lovely bird. I like the background, pose and details.

    Thanks Frank,
    It's always fun to photograph cardinals and other small birds at Brazos Bend State Park. They are all over the place there at times.
