The Back Yard Feeder

We have had two male/female pairs of cardinals visiting our back yard feeder this winter. I have been leaving my camera within reach, trying to get outdoors while they were around. Most of the time they would land behind something or in a spot otherwise difficult to see. Today, one of them landed right on the porch to get some seeds that had fallen off another feeder there. I didn’t try to sneak up on him, I just took a photo through the glass of our porch door. No long walk involved, I just took the photo from our living room. This is fitting since we have not been out much hiking or enjoying the local landscape due to the frigid winter temps we have had in upstate NY recently. I will continue to try getting a photo from outdoors that is not shot through the window glass. Hopefully he will permit me to photograph him some more.
