He looks stunning compared to what I'm seeing.

Truly Lisa, this is a beautiful capture of this dapper looking gentleman.
 
Hmmm... it could be worst, we have seen some completely bald in this gallery!!! :eek!:

I think this dandy looks still mega handsome, Lisa, a very loud :clap: to you for this gorgeous portrait and another one to him for being such a caring Dad!!! ;) :t: :t: :t:

Longing for seeing more of your Hummingbirds... for some reason we are not seeing many of the Western species posted lately, hope it's not a bad year for them!!! Cheers, amiga!!! B :)
 
I really like the composition for your Cardinal. He's a handsome bird to have in your backyard ;)
 
Lovely to see Dad involved!! A fine shot Lisa...
