Northern Cardinal - Cardinalis cardinalis - also known as Cardinal Rouge (French), Rode Kardinaal (Dutch), Rotkardinal (German), Cardinale rosso (Italian), Cardenal Norteño (Spanish), Röd kardinal (Swedish).
I think he’s a little over-exposed, but you can see his pupil, so I posted it anyway.

Beautiful! My cardinal pair have been back in the yard, eating at my feeder, many times this summer. I’m so thrilled when I see them. Unfortunately, the oriole hasn’t been back.

June 18th, 2008 at 6:22 pmCardinals are my favorite, they are so devoted to each other and so social with other cardinals. Lovely photo.

I had a pair for the first part of the summer, but they have not been around much lately. The feeder they eat at is now surrounded by tall and bushy plants (that were short and thin in Spring), and I wonder if they don’t like it due to the fact that it would give more cover to cats, etc. Maybe I’ll trim things back and see if they return.
