Description
Captured this Northern Male Cardinal bird in my butterfly bush in my back yard. What a amazing red color.
The male Northern Cardinal is perhaps responsible for getting more people to open up a field guide than any other bird. They]re a perfect combination of familiarity, conspicuousness, and style: a shade of red you cant take your eyes off. Even the brown females sport a sharp crest and warm red accents. Cardinals dont migrate and they dont molt into a dull plumage, so they Are still breathtaking in winters snowy backyards. In summer, their sweet whistles are one of the first sounds of the morning.
