Backyard Cardinals

I snapped this photo of three Northern Cardinals in my backyard Tulip Poplar tree. Two males and one female. The male is always the bright red. I was inside taking the photo. If I open the door they fly away and it was too cold to stand out on the deck with the tripod. I was several feet away so the quality is not very good. But maybe you can see what I see. Three cardinals.

  1. I remember a joke about Cardinals that goes that the St. Louis Cardinals are not the Cardinals of the Catholic church playing baseball. I love seeing birds in the backyard as they rest on the wires coming from the power sources of lights in the backyard.

  2. We used to occasionally have cardinals in our backyard here in Florida. Now however, we almost never see them. They are cheeky fellows and if you whistle to them they will definitely answer. I miss them. We do have bluebirds though.
