Backyard Winter Birds | Male Cardinal

Backyard Winter Birds | Male Cardinal   Male Cardinals cheer us up during the winter months with their brilliant red body. Cardinals don’t migrate and they don’t molt into a dull plumage, so they stay breathtakingly beautiful against winter’s snow. Northern Cardinals tend to sit low in shrubs and trees or forage on or near the ground, often in pairs.  For the whole story with all images, see Backyard Winter Birds | a 7 Image Story.
