Cardinal with Little One

Please excuse the mess under my feeders, I will clean that up. :-)

I thought these 2 were so cute. The Mommy looks quite ragged with feathers seeming to hang from her chest.

Feed Me !!!!

Excellent photos pelletory!!! Being fed is the best!!! :)

I never saw a baby before - so cute

Cute pictures, you can almost hear the baby squawking. Pelletory, do you ever offer grapes? The Cardinals in my area just love grapes.

Carla,

What color of grapes? Do they like the seedless ones only? How do you feed them grapes?

Marilyn

I should try that again now that the Starlings are gone. Thanks for reminding me!

In my experience it doesn't matter what color or whether or not they have seeds, or even if they're close to going bad. The Cardinals seem to love them all. What I do is tie a small cluster of grapes to the bottom of the shepards hook where the feeders are hung. Cardinals, Blue Jays, and Mockingbirds love to tear into those grapes. I think they really appreciate the moisture during our hot summers.

Carla,

Thanks for the info! I have to go the grocery store tomorrow and think (if I remember) a bunch.
