Ahhhh!  That is where they went.  We had a pair of cardinals here for a
while this winter.

Looking at a mixed flock of siskens, chickadees and goldfinches this
morning 
in my Hantsport backyard I noticed an unfamiliar robin sized olive grey
bird 
with a large bright orangeish bill under the feeder.  After a pause i 
realized it was a very nice female northern cardinal - the first at my 
feeders.

My bp was already going up from this when the male flushed from under
some 
brush and joined her - a bright and diffused ball of red in my rose
bush, 
very fine, both looking healthy and vigourous.

Great way to start a weekend!
