First post in almost a month. My mom was put in the hospital on Jan. 17, the day after the last post. She died 10 days later. Mom always loved cardinals. She would call and inform me if the cardinals were visiting her bird feeder. These were the only cardinal photos I could find to honor her memory and love of birds.
Hope you will join the group at Wild Bird Wednesday. You will be in for a real treat.
Thanks to host Stewart M.

You and I lost a family member this past month. There is a time for mourning, and hopefully all the good, happy memories remain with us forever.

Anni, so sorry to hear of your loss. Mom was in terrible condition the last few days so it was a true blessing. At 96, it was her time to die and she had certainly had her time to live.

I have not had but a couple of cardinals visit our Texas feeders. We always had a cardinal pair that nested in our yard in Missouri. Miss them.

Suziecate, thanks for your kind words. I followed your blog through the loss of your all to young father. Mom was 96 and was pretty much the last of her generation in the family. While she loved all us, she was lonely. Her youngest sibling passed last fall.
