Worth Two in the Bush :D
This guy did not like being held-but then cardinals are not big fans of that
This is full face of a handsome lad

Really amazing! How did you get to hold it?
TWTME

Hiya monaco, I was putting a band (or ring or tag) on it-it's actually not me holding but my partner :D
yeimaya (62 months ago | reply)
How many of these fellows do you see again? Any repeats during this tagging period?
yeimaya (62 months ago | reply)
Hi, I'm an admin for a group called VOICES IN THE WILDERNESS: A Prayer for Wild Things, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group. Definitely worth sending out a prayer for this ones long fruitful life aye?

Hey I'm an admin for that group too, lol, I meant to put it there.
Don't see that many cardinals which is a good thing they LOVE to bite ;D This was back in November but yesterday we were out and recaptured about 10 Black Capped Chickadees!
yeimaya (62 months ago | reply)
hahaha silly woman... not doing your recruitment job, I had to do it for you.
any idea how old the chickadees were, how old were the bands? I am amazed how long they live... they burn so much energy I thought their fires would go out.
makeupanid (62 months ago | reply)
most of the bands were by us, but TWO weren't-most of the birds were Second Year birds-oh yeah and one of the recaps was this one, from just last week!

I never tried grabbing one of my Cardinals...probably a wise idea...I'm not sure how you could ever even catch them...

He is NOT a happy camper! Your partner sure is skilled to be able to hold onto him and not end up with a bloody hand. I like his angry crest. Excellent shot!

impressive, I can't even get one standing in the same spot for even a second and you were able to catch one with the hand. How did you pull that off?
Definitely a winner!!!
You deserve another one.
