I have always loved Cardinals partly because they were my Grandmother's favorite bird and every time I see one I think of her :-)<br /><br />Marie<br />bonkersinbarnhart.comMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09294856404741431282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12261260.post-84809514011915559082011-03-06T15:35:14.761-06:002011-03-06T15:35:14.761-06:00Texwisgirl is absolutely right!

I had a chance to go birding with a woman from South Korea, and she was stunned by the cardinal.

I love to see the males perched on a bare tree limb after a snowfall -- a perfect Christmas card scene. <br /><br />I love to see the golden/red females, too. They are often the first birds back at the feeder after a 'scare' that sends all the birds fleeing.Pat - Arkansashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11623638376731374600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12261260.post-58740031832793265812011-03-05T12:20:43.783-06:002011-03-05T12:20:43.783-06:00Beautiful photos, Marvin.

They are the ultimate "Christmas card" bird. I personally think the ladies are more gorgeous than the males. :)TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510099344729038541noreply@blogger.com
