In the summer I can hear them rustling the leaves but they are able to hide better.
I already posted a black and white version of the next frosty shot but I also like it in full color so I'm using it here.
The female cardinal was drying off from a bath on my deck.
My oak trees have just about dropped the last of their leaves.
I like the way the water was beading up on the male cardinal.
The blue jay was playing peek-a-boo.
The male cardinal turned his nose up at me.
Then he showed me his profile.
I love the way trees look in the winter when they have first dropped off their clothing.
The rufous-sided towhee was taking a bath in my front yard.
The tufted titmouse was waiting its turn for a bath in my front yard.
The sparrow beat the titmouse into the bath.
The red-wing blackbird looked around probably hoping I'd add some water to the bath which I did.
The bluejay on my deck looked beautiful.

It such a wonderful experience going through all your pictures.
Your birdbath certainly is a haven for winged wildlife, Carver! No reason for that cardinal to turn its beak up at you after all you do for birds in the neighborhood. :)
You get such wonderful bird captures. I like the reflection shot too.
Great series of photos. Love the frost on the leaf.
Those Blue Jays sure are a pretty blue, but I love all your birds, and the trees.
Beautiful birds. You are lucky, so many of them visit you.
Terrific bird shots as always, Carver! I love them -- it's like an "up close and personal" visit!! Hope you have a great week!
Great sequence!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Great birds, Carver! You do see some wonderful birds at your birdbath. Thanks for sharing, have a great evening!
There is a special beauty about this time of year. Really enjoyed your bird series and the frost on the leaves.
Great images. Over here most trees are still green. Please have a good Tuesday.

That red cardinal is a real poser.
Beautiful set of photos... i love their colors.
We're in full winter mode right now!
Love your bird shots - the blue jays are so gorgeous as is that frosty picture of the leaves.
The frosty leaves look so beautiful. The cardinals add colour to the winter landscape.
birds taking baths are one of my favorite things! So cute!
