You can find them in Argentina and Hawaii, years ago one visited my backyard, it had two tag rings. I called Audubon Soc. and they assumed it had escaped from a private owner. They told me they can’t do nothing about it. Then they used me for a donation! I posted about this occurrence. 🙂 https://avian101.wordpress.com/2013/08/13/yeah/

This is a new Cardinal to me, HJ. Where do they live?
