Isn’t she a beauty? Often the female of a bird species is less colorful than
the male. This Northern Cardinal, with her bright orange, seed-crushing
bill and orangey breast would certainly be more admired as a unique, col-
orful bird if she did not have such a gorgeous red partner. Viewing her by
herself, in the detail allowed by John A. Middleton Jr.’s Nikon TC14E-II with
a 300mm lens, we can savor even the tiny red-orange facial feathers, her
erect crest and watchful gaze.
Often during mating season, male Cardinals may attack your windows or
even your car’s side-view mirrors. What is he doing? Likely warning the ap-

deceive birds into thinking it is a clear escape, especially when startled or
chased by a predator hawk. It is estimated millions of birds in the U.S. die
from window collisions annually. Scientists have found that birds can see
