"Hey!, where`s the food?!"

Last 12 of september I said in a post similar to this one:

"If you are a very very very lucky person, you might see this birds in wild in the city, near a square or a calm location"
and...I`m starting to think that I`m a very lucky guy...

As I mentioned yesterday I went to the north last weekend. A calm and lovely farm area with lots of nature around, and of course, Cardinals!

I was playing with the dogs and suddenly this couple appeard. I run for my camera and very very slowy I layed on the ground...
After the dogs ate, this two ones were there ready to finish what was left!. (some milk and little pieces of dog food). It was so funny to see them waving their heads.. like having a conversation.

When I started to think that they wasn`t worried of having me there, I tried to get closer for a better shot and they just flew away.

It was the first time in my life that I saw two Cardinals together.

Hope you like it!

Regards.
Fernando.

Beautiful birds which we don't see here in Turkey. Nice catch. Thanks for sharing.

Very funny image. The DOF whit the blur background put the accent on the birds.

Well done.
