Stephen > I was surprised when this northern cardinal almost flew into the blind from which I was photographing the birds and other animals that came to this area.  Cardinals are very common but the males are just so striking, I never get tired of them.  Peñitas, Texas, June 2009

Stephen > This is but one of the dozens of cardinals that I saw while visiting the Fennessey Ranch on the Central Texas Coast.  Near Refugio, Texas, December 2008
Stephen > Late in the day, this male northern cardinal came by to get some water at one of the watering areas at the Martin Refuge.  I like the expression he has.  Edinburg, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > While photographing hummingbirds, this northern cardinal, who is obviously molting, came in to see what was going on in the twisted willow tree that the hummingbirds have claimed as territory.  Midlothian, Texas, August 2008
Stephen > This is one of the northern cardinals that was hanging around the feeding station near the Visitor's Center at Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge.  This area is heavily shaded by native bushes and trees, but I did catch this cardinal in some dappled light.  Near Rio Hondo, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > This is an early morning image of a northern cardinal foraging near a feeding station at Los Madrones Ranch near Dripping Springs, Texas, April 2008.
Stephen > While out birding in my town, I found this cardinal high in a tree.  I believe it is a juvenile but I could be wrong.  I could not acheive a clear shot, but the light was nice and I like the color of the cardinal so I tried to get the cleanest image possible. Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
