Juvenile Cardinal is sporting quite the mohawk 🤭 #bird #birds #punkrockbird #babybird #cardinal

Male cardinal molting, only has a few sporadic red feathers.

I can’t wait for this guy to get his feather back. He’s so crazy looking 😆 ❤️🖤

We see the female very rarely, but she’s around.

Nice action shots!

This guy doesn’t come around too often, it’s a treat when he does ❤️😊
