We have two pairs of Cardinals who live around here. They have been here two years. I think that the first couple probably are the parents of at least one of the other pair. They tollerate each other pretty well.
Above is one happy couple taken last winter. I actually think the female is prettier than the male.
She has a variety of colours in her plumage.
They certainly make a handsome couple. They wake me up on summer mornings. They seem to be the first to get up and sit on the bush under my bedroom window. They have a somewhat annoying call. They are seed eating birds. They also like berries.
The Cardinal, especially the male looks his best in Winter when the snow flys
Its pretty easy to get good pictures.
I wanted to get some of the pictures on here while I had a few nice ones.
