Honestly my main intent on a gray and gloomy December morning was to get some exercise at a nearby park. Did bring my camera because you never know. First stop was a lake where I spotted a Kingfisher I had seen before, several snaps there. Moved onto a trail to get some mileage and saw pretty much nothing on this loop till I turned around for home. Near the trailhead were several dark eyed junco's, sparrows and a couple mating pairs of Cardinals. Spotted this pretty lady up in a bush about 40' away with my 800mm lens. Distance, the subdued light, angle, etc I believe allowed me to get the detail you see.
