Another Red Cheeked BulBul and Brazilian Cardinal

Taken @ West Side, O'ahu, Hawai'i. The Brazilian is a young fledgling with crest and chest that will turn red about a year from when this pic was taken.

Thanks Jeff. I think it's the soft early morning light that did the trick. When I'm watering the yard at dawn to get that chore done and out of the way, I usually keep a camera slung on my shoulder to capture moments like that after regretting so many lost opportunities that I could have captured. It's simply magical at that time of day.
