Spring Cardinal

While the bird is common, I don't seem to have many decent files of them, so I was glad to have captured this male in spring plumage on a nice perch with the fresh new spring foliage on the Maple.

40D, 300 2.8 w/1.4 tele, 1/160 @f5.0. Comments appreciated.

Brian,
I like the pose of the bird with that beautiful crest, the perch and the background.
