Hi Karen I agree with Gary the squirrel looks very funny poor thing. It surely did rain I do hope you were snug in your house when the skies let loose. Great shots. B
What delightful captures, Karen!! I love how you can see the droplets of water on the birds and they do look a bit annoyed at being wet!! And the squirrel is priceless! Thanks for the giggles to start my day! I hope you have a good one!
Yes so much rain here too. I wonder how the broods of birds are doing keeping the nestlings dry and finding food..... Thank you for linking in this week...Michelle
The cardinal looks like he enjoys rain about as much as I do. Cute pictures every one -- thanks for going out in the rain so you could share them with us.
Love all these shots! - the soft colours of the female cardinal - even in the wood - and brilliant orange-pink of the the male one - I agree, he does look grumpy!- and squirrel with the amazing tail!!

Please feel free to leave a comment, and hey, why not follow my blog too. I can't respond to every comment, but I will return the favour and visit your blog. I have turned off word verification, but it randomly shows up, that's a BLOGGER glitch.
Poor little wet characters! And yet, even with rain, they still look so beautiful! And the squirrel's tail holds its bushiness rather well!
ReplyDeleteThat squirrel is a riot. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
