Posing Cardinal

            Beautiful little finches, caught here on a fencepost, so glad I caught this as they have managed to elude me and my camera on all my trips to the USA.
Northern Cardinals do occur in London (Canada) year round and do not migrate. They have dense down feathers that provide insulation during the colder months. Males and female birds can be distinguished visually by their plumage: males have bright red feathers while the female is a reddish-olive colour.
