Beautiful photo Durf!
Hi Bert. We have lots of Cardinals all year. They are around the most in early morning and late afternoon. They really "pop" when there is a bunch of
snow.

Yes, I think we all have things we have taken for granted. I can help you out with Blue Jays.These are great - I appreciate seeing them. Where I grew up a million years ago (North Carolina/Florida US) we had these and we also had Blue Jays. They were everywhere. Where we live now (Washington, US) we don't have either one.
One thing I've noticed as I get older are the things I find that I miss and things I've taken for granted. We have a bunch of different birds up here that we didn't have there had so it's a trade off, but Cardinals have always been a favorite.
Thanks for showing them.
