Finally, Something Colorful to Photograph


When I got out of my car on Friday morning I could hear what I thought was a Cardinal chirping. I spent several minutes looking for it and then way up in the top of a tall tree I spotted it. I am a little confused, though. The shape and color of this bird would suggest that it's a female and yet it seemed to be chirping a lot, which I thought was the male behavior of attracting a mate. Maybe the females chirp alot also? Maybe they aren't trying to attract a mate anymore. Maybe they're saying "I'm fat with eggs so leave me alone".

Regardless, I'm just happy that after months of grey blah weather there is finally something worth taking a photo of.
