Courting Cardinals

I heard rustling and scratching outside my office window.  There in the bushes were a pair of cardinals, fluttering around and courting.  The male had a mouthful of something which he passed to the female.  Aww!  <3

EDIT 5/24/17:  Also today I spotted an indigo bunting perched on the pot hanger above the barrel garden.

I have a macho male cardinal who's been fighting his own reflection in my truck's side view mirrors.
(Now I need to wash my truck.)

For a while we had one here that would do that. When I was in junior high and high school, there was one who used to fly up and peck at the windows where we lived.
