Lady Redbird

FEMALE NORTHERN CARDINAL, EVANSTON, ILLINOIS, OCTOBER 9, 2012

Pentax K20D
Sigma APO 135-400 at 250mm
1/60 sec. f6.7
ISO 800

No sooner had I set up my photo equipment in Debby's office overlooking the back yard after our return the other day from the Upper Peninsula did this cardinal come calling. I'm going to try to rig a perch a couple of feet away from the deck so that my avian targets will have a better background to pose against.
