"Evening visitor !"



We have a pair of Cardinals that come to our feeder every day in early morning and late afternoon. I just love them. They are so beautiful.

Last year my granddaughter wrote this poem. She was 7 then.

"Mr Cardinal" by Sage

Pretty bird

Beautiful bird

on my shoulder

Bright and red

Beady black eyes

Orange claws

Feathery red tail

Always flying

Always lovely

Pecking for nuts

with its orange beak

Perched on a branch

Sleeping silently.

Perfect wording for a sweet painting.
