I was standing close to the stump and finally got a bird and the leaping deer in the same frame. The birds absolutely love this feeder and it's working just exactly the way I planned it. The sun was low and was shining where the bird is standing.
The sky was a lovely blue late Saturday afternoon an hour before sunset. Have a great weekend.
I think it's wonderful that you were able to get the bird and the deer in one picture. Is that a female cardinal? We have a very vocal male cardinal who's been eating the red berries on our evergreen shrubs. He's a handsome bird, but I sure wish I knew what he's talking about! Have a great weekend, Rosemary!
Pam -- The bird I captured in this photo is a Tufted Titmouse. I do have a pair of cardinals that come regularly. I have other photos with more birds but this was the only good one with the whole weathervane too. I should have stayed longer but my ungloved hand was freezing. Next time I will get the focus right first. I have a foxes den in the way back. I discovered it 20 years ago and it's still in use. They are thrilling to spot in the snow as you know so well. Enjoy your Sunday. xo, Rosemary

Great photos, Rosemary. Thanks for posting. When the sun is going down, it's a lovely time to be out with a camera.
Thank you, Tasha T. I'm glad I decided to take a walk at that time today, camera in hand. xo, Rosemary
