THE ADULT MALE IS BRIGHT RED OVERALL, BLACK MASK AND THROAT, RED CREST, AND THICK RED BILL
THE ADULT FEMALE CARDINAL IS DULL BROWN OVERALL, DULL RED WINGS AND TAIL, REDDISH CREST, AND BRIGHT RED BILL.
AN ADULT MALE IS KNOWN FOR HIS LARGE THICK RED BILL, AND HIS LONG TAIL. THE CARDINAL LOVES TO EAT SUNFLOWER SEEDS.
THEY MAKE THEIR NESTS IN THE LOW UNDERGROWTH. THEY LOVE TO TRAVEL IN PAIRS, OR SMALL GROUPS.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS ARTICLE ABOUT THE CARDINAL, THEY ARE A BEAUTIFUL BIRD.
My cardinals always travel in a pair - the male and the female. Wouldn't you know it? Once again, the male has the more beautiful coloring!

ReplyDeleteHi Rizzi, my ex-husband's Nonnie used to say that when you see a red bird, you should close your eyes and make a wish. I still do that to this day. Of course, we aren't seeing any cardinals on this side of the world. :( Mostly pigeons and doves.
ReplyDeleteYour gifts from Bernideen are absolutely lovely. And your lunch for Jackie looked and sounded devine. Glad to hear you had nice weather today. I think the dust here will hang around for a bit. Ugh! I do hate it so.
Off to bed now. Goodnite! Tammy
I wish you all a Wonderful Easter, dear Rizzi!!!
ReplyDeleteMuch JOY and happiness and chocolate, of course!!!
Love, Bela
