For the past 3 years, there is a kamikaze cardinal that likes to fly into my office window. I even planted a hibiscus tree in front of the window so he wouldn't fly full force into it. Since planting the tree, he now sits in the tree before he flies into the window. Every now & again I would see his lady with him, too. For the past few months, I've only seen the male, until this weekend - he brought a young cardinal with him to the tree! At first I thought it was his lady, but then I noticed that the beak was black and the feathers on its belly were like down.
Today after Julia got home from school, the male, female, and TWO young cardinals paid me a visit! I managed to get this shot before they all left the tree. Some of its feathers are starting to turn red. I don't know much about cardinals except that the young ones have black beaks and the adults have bright red beaks.
