Yes, I know, another post of a Cardinal from Roma, but I thought the pose was really cool. Hope you enjoy it.

Canon Eos10D + 500mm f/4.0 IS USM + 1.4x II. 1/320sec @ f/8.0 ISO 200.

Ahhh, "Crouching Cardinal". Very Nice pose, exposure, sharpness and the Red on Green makes me feel like the winter Holidays all over again!

Great pose and the sharp feather detail and background earn this one an A+. Excellent image.

Chris, I love this pose !!! Despite your 'junk bird' category, I happen to think you could make some dough from him!! Would clone the small piece of perch and head to the market ... pronto !!!
