A bright male northern cardinal, its plumage rivaling that of the colorful winterberry holly (
Ilex verticillata) drupes that it sits among. As stated in the
previous post, the holly garden at
Dawes Arboretum can be a fantastic place to drum up showy bird images.

I have two mated cardinals appear in my yard every year. I also
Have two large holly bushes, brimming with berries!
I truly feel that the male eats the berries, contributing
To it’s beautiful color?
