Wow!!! I don't think I've ever seen so many cardinals in one spot! They are beautiful, and I can't believe how vibrant they are. We usually have one couple, and occassionally 2 couples around, but never more than that.

These are incredible pictures, and Ritzy must be in birdy heaven!

Me too! I was just amazed at those pictures! Such beautiful bright birds they are! I think I would be as entranced in watching as dear Ritzy must be!!
LOL LOL I too almost thought the picture had been "doctored" up in Photoshop! Simply amazing! I would absolutely love a larger copy of one of those prints, tuxluvr! Is it possible to save one as a high quality .jpeg or .tiff and email it to me??

A family friend of ours from England gave my mom the most beautiful framed picture of winter cardinals a few Christmases ago. Well, since we go back to Indiana for the holidays, my mom wanted to bring the picture back out here to California, so she took the picture with her on the plane. When we arrived, we took a cab back to my dad's and my office where we had parked the car. Needless to say, my mom had accidentally left the picture in the cab...and we haven't seen it since. The guy must have kept it for himself because we had gone right back to the airport and put in a claim for it. My mom was crushed. It still makes me that this guy wouldn't have turned it in. I know he didn't turn it in on purpose because he wasn't the most amiable. He was already peod that my mom and dad and I and all of our luggage had to fit in his car! Heck, my dad is the one who packed the trunk for the guy, so I don't know why he was so pis*ed off at us! Ugh!!
