Makes me wonder in a landscape of green, and brown, why is the cardinal red? Cardinals have a feisty reputation, they are said to be very protective of their nests. They are so visible they would have to be. There are a lot of cardinal in the Marsh, my morning meanderings. There are a few near the entrance, another grouping just past the big bend. I wonder if they know one another. I have heard that birds maintain their balance while they sleep, amazing.
If you could ask the cardinal one questions, what would it be?
why do you peep and not sing, like the other birdies? your peep IS distinctive, as is your coloring.
ReplyDeleteI didn’t know that
DeleteThey do have quite loud chirps and raising whistles. And with cardinals both parents raise, feed and protect the young unlike a lot of other birds. The male is even known to even feed the female. I have several pairs.
ReplyDeleteLearning more
DeleteNo question. They are an attractive bird and we don't have them here.
ReplyDeleteYou have birds we don’t
DeleteWe used to love to see the cardinals in our gardens in Connecticut, especially I early spring against the gray and height backdrop. I have no questions.
ReplyDeleteTropical birds where you are?
DeleteI'd ask them where they are hiding. We have cardinals here but I see them rarely.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised at how much I see of them
DeleteI'm wondering why you humans think cardinals can talk! LOL
ReplyDeleteI wonder what they think of the noise we make
DeleteDo you know the pope
ReplyDeleteI think that the color is the same
DeleteThe birds were, in fact, named after the ecclesiastics because of their color.
Deletewhat is the meaning of life is always a good question to ask.
ReplyDeleteI suspect they more more than we do about that.
DeleteI would ask the bird to teach me that balancing while sleeping trick.
ReplyDeleteYou never fall over while sleeping
