  3. Swamp- Your blog is great, I always look forward to seeing pictures of the NC!

    Florida-
    She was looking both at me and the camera, and down at the seeds when she didn't know that I was looking!

    In the back of my mind though, I really do think that my windowsill cardinals would love to come into our nice warm house for a few minutes at a time to escape the snow and ice.

  4. The most DARLING photos, TOM!!! We have also had birds doing antics at the window every once in a while, looking inside. Doesn't it make winter worth it. :D

    Tell the female cardinal her mate is in our yard.

    I always think of letting the birds inside too when it's frigid outside.

    Hugs, JJ

  8. She's so cute, and looks so curious! I have to agree with Megan, though, maybe a parakeet in the house, but the wild cardinals will have to just appreciate your bedroom from the window sill!

  10. JJ-

    Thanks JJ. I will tell her to head to Michigan.

    Megan- Ok. Tortoises and fish will have to suffice.

    Bob-Thank you. There were fun to take, and I really got lucky that she stuck around long enough for me to get my camera and even take some pictures.

    Monarch- Thanks. These were the same set as the shot from before, but I wanted to show the others because this cardinal just had tons of personality.

    Mom- I don't think that any birds will be on our pet list for a long time.

    Lime and Tequila- I wish it was summer. Thats all I can think about right now...Florida, here I come. Great name BTW. Thanks for stopping by!

    Thanks Everyone!

  11. Love the expression on her face. Maybe she's just tying to get some place with no snow, too.

  12. Wren-

    I think you've got it. I'm sure she was thinking the bedroom looked mighty warm and snow free!

  13. Oh my gosh... this reminded me of a series of photos posted by Bill Adams on Flickr about a "Terrorist" cardinal that has been quite the annoyance.
