Male Northern Cardinal sitting on a brach - 1/400 sec | F / 8.0 | 285MM | ISO 1600
More birds in snow.
This post contains photos of the male and female Northern Cardinal perched in our Butterfly Bush. All photos were taken during a daytime snow storm in our yard. The photos of the male cardinals are mostly shot through the branches of the bush. I was able to take close-up images of the females as they are less skittish than the males that visit.
All photos are shot handheld with the Canon 7D Mark II and the Canon EF 100-400 F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens. Post processing was done in Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC.
Thanks for stopping by today!
