    I was taking bird pictures in the yard last night. The birds were not cooperating very well but I did manage to get a few. The vultures were from the back yard. This one was from the front yard. I believe the bird is a female cardinal.

    I like silhouettes and use them quite a lot in my card making. A lovely shot Dooley. :stew2:

    That is a pretty silhouette.
    I have the same trouble trying to photograph my bird pals, they don't cooperate with me either!

    It's not a cardinal. It doesn't have that little tuft on it's head. Then, it must be a little dove. There were only cardinals, doves, sparrows, and that one that I think was a woodpecker and he wasn't that fluffy.
