Description

Male cardinal perches on a tree branch with his beautiful crown feathers all up in the air. He is perched on the angled branch, ready to hop to the bird feeder. The beautiful blue background has very subtle texture with leafy pattern as well as corner decorations. This version has a small white freme and a verse to a beautiful Christian song. It is actually an old standard for many Christian hymnals, but Chris Tomlin sings a modern adaptation that is just wonderful, I hope you will give it a listen on Youtube, Note the youtube link if you wish to hear the song by Chris Tomlin for the verse. Amazing Grace, My Chains are gone. Wonderful for any wall in your home or office or perhaps a greeting card. Many more wonderful works can be found in my various galleries, from photographs and photoart to digital creations and abstracts. Thanks for browsing, commenting and most of all for any purchases.

They�re a perfect combination of familiarity, conspicuousness, and style: a shade of red you can�t take your eyes off. Even the brown females sport a sharp crest and warm red accents. Cardinals don�t migrate and they don�t molt into a dull plumage, so they�re still breathtaking in winter�s snowy backyards. In summer, their sweet whistles are one of the first sounds of the morning................Size & Shape - The Northern Cardinal is a fairly large, long-tailed songbird with a short, very thick bill and a prominent crest. Cardinals often sit with a hunched-over posture and with the tail pointed straight down..............Color Pattern - Male cardinals are brilliant red all over, with a reddish bill and black face immediately around the bill. Females are pale brown overall with warm reddish tinges in the wings, tail, and crest. They have the same black face and red-orange bill..............Behavior - Northern Cardinals tend to sit low in shrubs and trees or forage on or near the ground, often in pairs. They are common at bird feeders but may be inconspicuous away from them, at least until you learn their loud, metallic chip note.............. Habitat - Look for Northern Cardinals in inhabited areas such as backyards, parks, woodlots, and shrubby forest edges. Northern Cardinals nest in dense tangles of shrubs and vines.
