Baby Cardinal
My wife sets out birdseed on our deck for the local wildlife. For months we’ve seen a Cardinal pair coming by for a quick meal. Last week we saw their baby for the first time. Well actually we heard him/her first. Every time mother was nearby he/she started chirping loudly for food. We saw momma oblige a few times but was mostly trying to teach baby to eat on their own.
Can anyone tell us if baby is a boy or girl? We’re not sure how to tell without a much closer (and personal) inspection.
I thought this shot was cute. Baby was using a banana leaf as shade from the sun.
