Our photography guest today was Ed Ford from the beautiful state of Delaware !  What a time we had with 30 species identified on the ranch.  His main goal was the fabulous Pyrrhuloxia (Desert Cardinal).  We saw a beautiful little female that came in at the Roadrunner Blind and gave us some lovely shots  but the male was elusive, staying hidden in the brush and calling on this lovely spring morning.  In the afternoon, again a bit elusive, staying hidden.  Toward evening Ed finally got his chance and snapped some awsome pictures of a spectacular male !!  Great job Ed !!!
