Cardinal Brings a Smile (The Weekly Smile 70)
Cardinal
I happened upon a challenge called The Weekly Smile which runs Wednesday to Wednesday! So, I decided to join in. We can all use a reason to smile! The sight of this vibrant male Cardinal makes me smile. The sound of its song makes me smile too. The weather here has been perfect for sitting on my back porch and watching my backyard birds which, of course, makes me smile! Clearly, I am a fan of simple pleasures!
I hope you are having a great day!

Thanks for joining in this week! I love watching the cardinals, but it seems that every time I bring my camera out, they fly off. I guess they don’t like to have their pictures taken…

I know what you mean… I love the song of a cardinal, and watching them. Where I used to live, one would sit at the top of the tree and serenade us,so wonderful!

Lovely photo! Our cardinal has disappeared – a wise move as a pair of hawks have taken up residence nearby.

Hawks are fierce! It makes me nervous to see one anywhere near my yard!
