on December 13, 2018I do so love this shot, it is magnificent. And also I feel so sad for this beautiful Cardinal, he's all puffed up against the cold. But, I guess like you said, he's ok with hanging in NC. This is a wonderful shot and would make an amazing Christmas Card.

on December 12, 2018Love the shot, but don't feel too sorry for the cardinals. They stay year 'round up here, where it gets much colder for much longer than in NC, even with the anomalous weather you've been having. It doesn't seem to bother them.
