Cardinals
So it’s been a while since I last posted here. It turns out that getting through the last semester of a JD/MA program doesn’t leave as much time for photoblogging as I would have hoped.
Anyway, Spring has officially sprung here in NC. For the last couple weeks, I’ve been trying to get a good photo of a cardinal. Unfortunately, they’re pretty skittish birds. So far, this is as close as I’ve gotten to a male cardinal:

The other day, I heard a cardinal outside (I’ve learned to recognize their calls), so I grabbed my camera and ran out. Sure enough, there was a cardinal in close range—but unfortunately, it was a female. Nothing against female cardinals, but they aren’t quite as photogenic as the boys. But I snapped some photos anyway:
I’m pretty happy with this shot in particular. Too bad she isn’t a he!
