A sparrow and a female cardinal sharing space at the feeder.
This was pretty dark to begin with so tried some different things to lighten it up, also it was shot through a closed window. The lighting was different on either side of the feeder so the cardinal was too dark.
I'm still dealing with internet issues so hopefully tomorrow the tech can figure out the problem.
Thank you for the comments.

I think you did very well with a tricky lighting situation Sandi - both birds are readily identifiable - I'm surprised the sparrow stayed however with a cardinal around.

You did well with your processing. The birds are nicely lit and clearly focused. Catching birds is a bit tricky if you don't have something to entice them and a place that seems somewhat safe so it was good to get the shot through the window. Nice going Sandi. I sympathize with your internet issue.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
Beautiful pair, Sandi. I thik you did an excellent job dealing with the window and the lighting.
Great focus and color. Hope your internet issue is solved soon.

The result is quite good Sandi. Good clarity and details here and you can't do much about one side being darker.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
You captured these birds superbly and great composition.plus stunning light,colours and detail too.Also the frame work adds a lovely effect to this photo as well.

Whatever you did, it came out really well... I know from experience how difficult it is shooting through a window, and then the birds are always moving, so the clarity and lighting here are well done...

You did fine under the circumstances. Topaz Lens Effects would balance that lighting easily in a couple seconds.

This looks great Sandi! I like the lighting just as it is. Very nice work with these pretty birds.

Spend a few minutes each day being grateful for what you have and who you have to share it with.
Very interesting scene, nice little and colorful birds. Your presentation is very good, I love it.

The background and frame are perfect. The bird on the left seems slightly overexposed. I don't do it, but can't you take multiple shots and combine them? I think you have PhotoShop and I am always hearing about how you can do practically anything in PhotoShop.
Perfectly focused, no noise, splendid shot.

I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.
Wonderful shot, nice view and very good composition. Lovely work, Sandi.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Nice. You did a good job with the difficult lighting situation, Sandi. After Joanie's comment about the confessional, I'll never look at my feeders the same again, LOL!

You can always try the fake the exposure trick. Edit the photo so lighting is good on the sparrow and then edit a second version so the lighting is good on the cardinal. Then combine the two using HDR software for a happy medium of the two.
Nice composition of the scene and a good close up on the feeder and birds. Nice details and focus in the photo.
