That guy has a lot of personality, which you did an excellent job of capturing! I love the first one!

He was tamer than any of the other songbirds that come to the deck, mostly to perch on the top beam.

Poor beetle.

Now I know what it's like to look one in the eye!

These are all fabulous photos! I love his expression in the first photo. Who are you, anyway???

Great composition and color.

Cardinals are one of my favorite birds, and these are great shots!
