Feathered Elegance: A Cardinal’s Profile

Here is a female northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) perched upon the tip of one of the posts of my fence. Often the females are the colors of sunset, as is this one.

My photo gallery contains more that 700 images that I've chosen to share. Most are there for their visual appeal but there are a few novelty images. You can check out my gallery at:

@[email protected] Absolutely beautiful Swede...I am always amazed at the female's yellowish colors. Seeing a Cardinal, for whatever reason, makes me pause and think about how grand Mother Nature is to carve out a cardinal corner, in the world, for them.

I had a pair of nesting Cardinals, in the backyard, last May. I was having a cigarette and this female was on the pavement looking for building materials. Images were taken from my phone, and not in high definition...but I was quick enough to click! 🙂
