Q: My sister in-law recently gave me a Canon EOS 10D digital camera body. Having only used point and shoot cameras, what would be a good beginners lens to get for this camera? Should I get kit lens to start with?
A: Do you know?

This male cardinal is one of hundreds just like himself who were patiently waiting their turns at one of our bird feeders today. So many birds today I couldn't count!

Fabulous capture of this brilliant male cardinal, Don. He gives me hope that spring will be here very soon. I love that blue sky above him, and know that soon that tree will be lush with green leaves. Very nicely photographed!!!
