Thank you to all of you for the positives comments. Most of them were taken with a Sigma 70-300mm. I am awaiting a 50-500mm (Bigma) as it will be useful for my trip to Florida (east coast) in 2 weeks. thanks again.

Holly crap, that first Cardinal is a fat sucker. I'd be suprised if he could fly. lol

Nice series, Robert! The Ruby-throated Hummingbird is outstanding!

Great shots. But don't tell me you have snow on the ground already!

Awesome Robert!

I know hard hard it is to get that close yet alone come away with images this good. That Cardinal is excellent. I've tried many times to get such a shot but no luck so far. You've set the bar pretty high here.
