Loving Couple (Cardinalis Cardinalis)

One of my favorite photos from my trip to the Texas Hill Country. I know we tend to put human emotions on to birds and animals but when I can get a photo like this, or see a photo like the one put up yesterday by JackF in the European Gallery, I do attach human emotion to the birds. This pair came in a number of times within seconds of each other, and would normally perch together just behind some leaves, making a photo near impossible. Finally they decided to allow me a good view.

Looks like they are having a serious discussion about the kids in this beautiful capture.

Very hard not becoming anthropomoric when it comes to wildlife. ;)
