My Friendly Visitors
Today I will be posting pictures of one of the most well known and popular birds in the Country. This bird is the Northern Cardinal. The male’s entire body is bright red and his face is masked in black feathers. The female’s body is mostly beige with light orange-red wings, tail and top of her head. The Northern Cardinal do not need to migrate, they adapt very well in cold temperature as well as in hot temperature.
