Journaling reads: Mr. Cardinal is so pretty against the snow! I love to watch him searching through the snow to find the seeds that have fallen from the bird feeders. He will eat from the feeders, but more times than not, he and the Mrs. eat what has fallen to the ground. I so love his brilliant red color against the dead of winter!
The Cardinal-Bird
by Lloyd Mifflin
The Cardinal has come again;
He all the brake salutes;
His music floods the silent glen,
Oh, hear him, how he flutes!
From tree to tree his scarlet glows;
Such beauty rare he brings,
That all the richness of the rose
Seem lavished on his wings!
