Surprise, this guy came to the oak cutting to grab some peanuts. He was about 15 feet away. Of course I was not ready for him to arrive. Yet, here he is looking fabulous.
Have a fantastic day, happy snapping and as always thanks for stopping by.
Mr. Cardinal Struts a jaunty little fellow, he landed on the rail and sort of strutted around like he was in charge, found in North Carolina.
Mr. Cardinals Choices he had to think about either a peanut or some bird seed, they like the bird seed but will snatch a peanut some times, found in North Carolina.
Yellow-billed Cardinal is not a crested species, so other than having red on the head, there is nothing very cardinal-like about it at all. It is a very striking species though! The head is bright red, turning black on the throat, making it look like it has a black bib. As the name states, the bill is yellow, almost orange in fact and about the same color as the legs. The underparts are white and the upperparts blackish, and these are separated by a white half collar from the red head. This cardinal is a species of streamside vegetation, being found also around lakes and swamps and often feeding right from the water’s edge. Where it overlaps with the larger Red-crested Cardinal (Paroaria coronata), Red-crested takes habitats in drier and shrubbier habitats, while Yellow-billed is more of the wetland species. However, they both overlap to some extent. The bright coloration and nice song has made them a prime candidate as a cage bird, through parts of Argentina and southern Brazil. It has been successfully introduced to several of the larger islands in Hawaii! Birds of the World.
This fellow was photographed at Pantanal - MT - Brasil.
Happy Wednesday. HBW!

This lovely lady is always on the lookout for me to put out special treats in random locations. She is not always the first one to grab a snack from a popup station but it seems that she puts a lot of effort into being first.
I posted an image of her working her way to the station a few days ago. She saw what I was doing and began her journey to this spot. She was rewarded with first pick of the treats and seemed rather pleased with herself.
Have a terrific Thursday and happy snapping.
Northern cardinal on ice. Taken a few years back with the point and shoot.
Thanks so much for the visit..!
Cardinal visiting to get some bird seed, I am lucky to have a lot of Cardinals around, found in North Carolina.
The female Northern Cardinal seems to be more shy than the male, but a few calls peaked her curiosity.
There are many Cardinal Rules in which to follow, one being make sure you have your subject in focus before pressing the shutter. This lovely Female Cardinal came into perfect focus and I pressed the shutter!
Cardinals don’t migrate and they don’t molt into a dull plumage, so they’re still breathtaking in winter’s snowy backyards. In summer, their sweet whistles are one of the first sounds of the morning.

Thanks for viewing, faves and comments are always appreciated !
Usually the male Cardinal in bright red plumage gets all the attention, but this lady Cardinal preening on a rock at Ritter Springs was a beauty who caught our attention.
A male Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) in the woods at Cave Creek Ranch in Cave Creek Canyon near Portal, Arizona, U.S.A.
The harsh light conditions that day made it extremely challenging to get the proper exposure but this was my only sighting of the species so I had to take what was offered.
This was on a trip we took on our first venture on a winter holiday into the United States with the focus on Arizona.

Le Cardinal doit son nom à la couleur rouge du plumage du mâle qui rappelle les vêtements rouges des cardinaux. Il fréquente les bois, les jardins et les marais.
Le Cardinal rouge est un oiseau chanteur de taille moyenne avec une huppe caractéristique sur la tête et un masque facial noir chez le mâle et gris chez la femelle. Le mâle est rouge vif tandis que la femelle est d’un brun rougeâtre terne.
Le Cardinal rouge est principalement granivore mais se nourrit également d’insectes et de fruits.
Le mâle est territorial et défend son territoire par le chant.
Pendant la parade nuptiale, le mâle nourrit la femelle bec à bec.
La femelle pond de deux à quatre fois par année et trois à quatre œufs sont pondus par couvée.
