I took this a couple days ago and thought it was appropriate for Valentines day. The girls here will probably enjoy it a little more than the men.

300mm(450mm equivalent) f5.6 1/180sec ISO 400. I don't remember if it was on a tripod or rested in the window. A little crop here, maybe 25 percent. There was a Junco on the right that needed cropped out.

Thanks everyone, Jan I put the EXIF up top in the original post.

Daniel, I hope that means Spring is on the way. I'm ready for some flowers to start blooming.
