Northern Cardinal: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, April 2026 \u2014 It snowed pretty much all day yesterday\u2014big fluffy flakes, or rather light clumps of flakes, floating slowly down. And, of course, the birds were hyperactive at the feeders. Many are nesting or courting. Some already have eggs. The falling snow brought them to the feeders to keep up with their need for nourishment in the season when they need it most. The neighborhood male Cardinal was on the deck about once an hour all day long. This is a bird we count ourselves blessed to see once a month most months. And of course, there is nothing more striking than a Cardinal in the snow (or few things at any rate). Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 Contemporary @ about 600mm equivalent field of view crop.
