"Blackbeard"

I call this guy "Blackbeard" after the pirate.

He is an apparently older Male Northern Cardinal who looks as though he has had a rather interesting life. (Notice his beak)

He has a black beard, a broken beak and a "Rough Life" appearance. All he needs is a peg leg, and an "Eye Patch".

 

All things considered he seems to be doing very well.

 

He is also one of my Yard Birds.
