There is a bird in my garden that has commandeered the tree top directly adjacent to my porch. He’s a vibrant orange-red Northern Cardinal who never stops chirping. He is absolutely gorgeous and very social, despite his noisy serenade and his obvious territoriality. His very persona begs attention: stunning, frisky, vivacious and congenial.
