This Spring, the pair of Northern Cardinals claiming the wild wild woods as their nesting territory came often to the tray feeder. The female is a lovely young thing. Her mate sports a strange mix of feathers, not the usual intense red coat of feathers. Maybe he is a very young male who has not grown into his full adult colors. In any case, she felt he was up to the task of helping her raise some offspring.
This week, they are bringing their two youngsters to the seed tray.
