This Cardinal stayed in a tree outside my house guarding Mrs. C, who was on a nest in a rosebush by my backdoor this spring. She was trying to hatch three eggs, but the cold and rainy wet weather allowed only one to hatch. It was nice to see her on the nest when I went into the house. I might post a photo of her later.

This is dedicated to our good friend Cornelius (Corngrowth) who is by his wife's side in her time of need. Some call him Mr. C and I prefer to call him Sea since he is a retired Sea Captain. Keep all of his family in your prayers.
