The South American cardinals in the genus Paroaria are placed in another family, the Thraupidae (previously placed in Emberizidae). / These are robust, seed-eating birds, with strong bills. The family ranges in size from the 12-cm, 11.5-gram Orange-breasted Bunting to the 25-cm, 85-gram Black-headed Saltator[verification needed]. They are typically associated with open woodland.

I would like to dedicate this image to my husband Tommy. We have been sweethearts since we were in the eighth grade! Neither one of us dated anybody else all our lives. We will celebrate 38 years of marriage on July 3 of this year, 2009. I can’t think of a better friend, a more faithful companion, a more loving and devoted spouse than Tommy. I am blessed. Happy Valentine’s Day to my one and only Sweetheart! I think this pair of cardinals is a perfect symbol of our marriage as these wonderful little birds mate for life and are a beautiful symbol of fidelity.

19×25 pastel on Sennelier La Carte paper FEATURED IN C.O.R.E., FRIENDS OF RED BUBBLE, FIRST THINGS, THE PATCHWORK, AND THE SISTERHOOD / She has been sitting on my easel for the longest time. I finally got inspired to finish her. I made her a lot bigger than the others in the series, so that should appease her for me taking so long on her. / She is the Spirit of the North Wind. It is the wind of Winter and of death, but also of rebirth. She gives us the wisdom to overcome death and to know it is not the end. We must walk through the Northern gate at the end of this life and she will be the one to usher us through. Listen to cold Winter wind, and let her help you release your fears into the darkness of the night. Also from the Series

9×12 pastel on Sennelier La carte paper FEATURED IN THE SISTERHOOD, THE DIVINE FEMININE, AND FEMININE INTENT Just something to go along with my Blackbird. Maybe I will do a whole series of women and birds. I think she captures that primal sacred feminine energy that red birds/cardinals symbolize.

a male cardinal, brilliant in red, has hgis big bright eyes on the lookout for predators. Cardinals love to sit in the pine tree to check the sunflower seed feeder for safety before coming in to feed. This affords an excellent opportunity for some candid, closeup shots. I love the way the pine needles frame the cardinal, and radiate out from him.
I went for a walk yesterday in the woods of the beautiful Edwards Gardens in northeast Toronto..there were lots of Bluejays Cardinals Chickadees and other birds .. it was so nice to see them all ..I love watching them
