Oooooo...Mama just got a new do!! Cute pics, chico! I love your house feeder, too!

I absolutely love cardinals but they haven't found us here in the woods for a few years now.

Amazing. I am as in awe of the size of their beak as I am their colour.

Poor Mrs. Cardinal looks like she needs a new stylist! Just kidding Chico! They're truly a beautiful sight.

I've seen males around my area but to be honest, I have not seen a female to date. Maybe I'm just not that observant.

Beautiful birds, Chico.

Cardinals are very rare in Manitoba and I don't believe I have ever seen one.

We had a pair here when we first moved in, but after a few years they disappeared and we've not had a pair since. I keep hoping, though! They're beautiful birds! You're very lucky, chico!
