There are males and females.
I know the birds.
They know me.
Each one is different.
Each one is charming in her own way.
This one has a bit of white on her checks.
Mine is at my temples.
I enjoy their company while I read.
Today I focused on the females.
A new to my deck Female came today.
Mine is at my temples.
Today I focused on the females.
She is shy. Smaller than the other females I think she is young.
I fell in love!
I used to have them and watched how they made a family, how they raised the children. Mama was always very gentle and fed the children, but the male could be really nasty and one time a fairly grown up boy was chased away very rudly by the Papa.! I did not feed the male for a couple of days! I really was angry at him, but generally the male cardinal can be nasty to any other member of his family!
