The Subtle Little Lady Cardinal




We all know those brightly-colored, male cardinals catch everyone's eye, but here's a beauty that is a little harder to spot - the lovely female cardinal. Who knows why male birds are often the more colorful and striking than the females? Some say that the males are more striking in order to be able to compete for mates and territory, whereas the females need to remain inconspicuous in order to care for their nests. 



Whatever the reason, the female cardinal has a simple beauty all its own, don't you agree?


Please say yes! Don't hurt the little lady's feelings.
