Shot through my dining room window, the bird seemed to be watching me as I snapped away at his different moves. I had just gone out and dumped in a new batch of seed and the cardinal was picking out all the choice sunflower seeds.
I guess I am a little confused with the coloring of the cardinals. I didn't think the females turned more red in the winter but I don't think I have ever seen a male other than straight red. I know normally that the female is pretty much all brown all summer for blending in with the nest.
I looked it up on the net and the male can have brown like this. It didn't say that it would look like this in the winter, but I am suspecting that this is it's coloring. From the photo they called this a Northern Cardinal.
We had a windy day yesterday and today we are going to warm up a bit. The winter weather here has been good and bad. I really will be interested to see when we will get our one last blizzard. I know we have missed two of them so far but sooner or later we do get hit.
I am covering for a shop teacher today with study hall duty and a dare program to attend with seventh graders. Thanks for stopping by today.
Has anyone ever caught me when I am switching the Photo a Day and the Creative Zone from one site to the other? I sit in a study hall sometimes and finish a blog and really don't pay attention to what I doing. I find that I have blogged my Photo a Day on my Creative Zone and then turn around and blog my Creative Zone on my Photo a Day. One can copy and past the html from one to another easily enough. It is just at one time I can have the two blogs on both sites at the same time until I move in and delete the ones in error.
I am sure that would be confusing if you were to see them come and go right before your eyes.
