Eleven Cardinals Dining


ELEVEN!!! That is how many male cardinals I counted at the feeder yesterday!

The most I have ever seen were seven. Yesterday was a grand record!

They come in all shapes and sizes.
I think that some of them are still babies and some are granddaddies.
The babies are bright red, but very small.
The granddaddies are very large!

I am pretty sure that most of the males have a mate,
but the females are not as easy to spot,
so I could not get an accurate count.

Come spring, it looks like we may have a cardinal population explosion!
