Northern Cardinals

In our frontyard, we have all kinds of birds and squirrels visiting the feeder. One day, a pair of Northern Cardinals started coming by. Cardinals are rare in our neighborhood, where Blue Jays are more common. Once they found the feeder, they began to show up at the same time and place every day. The male always stays nearby, watching over the female as she eats. And it’s true — every time they arrive, I love to watch them from the window, enjoying their little routine.
