Hello Eileen!
Cardinals are indeed very beautiful birds.
I am always so jealous of you that you have this beautiful bird ... LOL
It’s Christmas time again, that time of year when love and good will reigns. May peace and joy be yours for the taking, and may it follow you all your days. Have a blessed Christmas!

Nice cardinal images and Best Wishes to you, Eileen, as well. Our cardinals are strangely silent the past few weeks. Did not expect them to be singing this time of year, but they are hiding away.

I think that on our side of the Atlantic Northern Cardinal has supplanted European Robin as THE Christmas card bird. They have the bragging rights for cuteness and we have it for colour! All the best for the holidays, Eileen.
