Cardinals can be flighty and rarely welcome my presence at the window, but this one just kept on posing – giving me time to try a few different camera settings.

A fun fact about Cardinals:

The Northern Cardinal’s name dates back to the time of the United States founding colonists, stemming from the similarity of the males’ vibrant red plumage to the red biretta and vestments of distinguishable Catholic cardinals.
