Description
The northern cardinal, state bird of seven states (including my home state of Ohio), perched atop my antenna. This striking red songbird is a midsized bird found as far south as Mexico to southern parts of Canada. The males are a vibrant red while the females are a duller reddish brown. They prefer a diet of mostly grain but also feed on fruit and insects. Given the male cardinal's territorial nature, I'm not so sure this television antenna belongs to me anymore.
