Cardinal Family Reunion


How many cardinals can you find in this (admittedly not terribly good) picture? It may help to note that every bird that is visible is, I believe, a cardinal (male or female).

The cardinals seem to all come at once to the feeder-- when they were all out there, I could not see any other birds in the vicinity, until I heard the raucous call of a bluejay, who promptly put the redbirds to flight while he ate.

Oh, how I love the snow!

I count 10... I love seeing the cardinals just after it has snowed. The males are so bright.

Well, JeMa&JeMa, if you'll first allow yourselves to be introduced (i.e. sniffed by) the canine members of the Menagerie, we might just have ourselves a deal....

I counted nine but didn't try as hard as p&m. By the way, that was the real JeMa&JeMa, not me...as Daniela thought.
