Ladies Day

IMG_2845.jpeg

It was definitely ladies day for this group of beautiful female cardinals.  For the couple of hours I was out taking pictures in the snow only females showed up to the feeding area.  They were chatting, flying in and out with “no problems in the world” attitudes.  

Later than evening I saw one male cardinal appear for about 5 minutes, without a lady by his side.   I wonder if because of the cold and snow one stays back at the nest.  Their spring chicks should have all fledged now so not sure why that would be the case but they definitely had split up for the day.
