We have recently had baby cardinals hatch in a nest built in our front door wreath! It's been so much fun watching them grow, fly to and from the nest and listening to the momma cardinal chirp away in maternal joy! I'm reminded of my grandmother, Wilda. She loved to bird watch and had a special love for cardinals. Every time I see a cardinal, I think of her....hmmmm, I wonder if this is why red has always been my favorite color?!
In honor of my grandmother,Wilda, cardinals, and the color red, I have compiled a few beautiful things from my favorite Etsy shops!
A Cardinal in Our Nest!
I remember watching cardinals in our back yard while I would fix your hair for school in the mornings. It always fascinated me how the male cardinals looked after their mates. We even saw him bring her worms to eat. I assume she could have gotten them for herself, but he wanted to serve her. How sweet is that!?
ReplyDeleteI would not think it was sweet if Tom brought me worms for breakfast....just sayin.
