Always a little nature close to home

One nice thing about a bird feeder, it is attracts a lot of wildlife. Besides the squirrels that like to crash the party, we’ve been having a family of Cardinals show up. I managed to get a good shot of one of the males having a nice snack of Safflower seeds. There’s a grey dove on the feeder, too, but he’s a little camera-shy.

We’ve also been seeing some cardinals that seem to be pretty young, as they don’t have all their coloration in quite yet. So somewhere near must be their nest.
