"Pyrrhuloxia Painterly" by Patti Deters. A vibrant red and grey bird with a distinctive crest perches atop a weathered piece of cactus deadwood. The background is a swirling mix of light colors, providing a soft contrast to the sharp details of the bird and its perch. This small yet striking desert cardinal is a Pyrrhuloxia (cardinalis sinuatis) and is a resident of the mesquite groves Tucson, Arizona. These pretty songbirds look a bit like their cousin, the northern Cardinal; males are grey with lots of red coloring on the tall crest, face, breast, and tail.

The same image with species identification can be seen at the link below. If you like outdoor nature photography, please enjoy more birds and other wildlife images at patti-deters.pixels.com.

Other images are more digital and simple, and those tend to portray the softer side of nature. I am pleased to share these images and would be honored to have one or several in your workplace or home. If you see one you like that is not quite right, just let...
