Cardinals are just that much more pretty against the drab background……..maybe it’s been decided cardinals just aren’t getting enough attention, they need a drab background……yeah, let’s go with that!
Oh how I love this picture, Suzanne!!! The very epitome of winter but with it’s beautiful side showing. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Stay warm, roost like a chicken! Bake something, make something or just call a couple of cats and take a nap!
Blessings to everyone!
Cardinals are such a cheery sight against the snow, aren’t they? To our great delight, we had one at the feeders this morning. He just started coming 3 days ago. We’ve been waiting! Last year we had a group of at least 6 (including females) that came often.
Your picture is beautiful. I love the way he’s peeking around the tree trunk.
Gorgeous – this reaffirms that I need a new camera. lol There was a cardinal in my neighbor’s tree the other day that I tried taking a picture of and put on my blog Sunday and he looks like a fuzzy red blob. haha! Have a great day! We got 3 more inches of snow last night and our temps are supposed to drop dangerously over the next 24 hours.
:no: No Cardinals here…yet. They are so pretty, especially in the winter. I love how Mr. Cardinal patiently waits for Mrs. Cardinal to eat while he stands guard. What a man! :airkiss:
So pretty! We have a couple of Cardinal mates that stay at our house most of the year since we feed them. Love to see the beautiful red against the snow. In the spring they play in the wild strawberry patch at the back of our backyard. It gets so thick before hubs mows it that you can just see their little red heads. Love it!
I love this picture of the cardinal peeking around the tree. I grew up in Oklahoma, where we could see cardinals, but now live in California, where there are no cardinals! They are beautiful birds, and really do show up well in the snow! Great photo!

WOW! What a gorgeous picture! We do not see those kinds of birds in Colorado, so this is a treat.
Hope everyone is staying warm, it’s minus 6 here this morning.

The only thing prettier contrasted against the snow than a cardinal is a (or many) deer!
