Northern Cardinal

   The cardinal's rich coloring and its readiness to come to feeders have made it a favorite among bird-watchers.  

   Its varied musical repertoire consists of loud, clear whistles that are usually repeated several times -- wheet, wheet, wheet, wheet, chew, chew, chew, cheedle, cheedle, cheedle.  Male and female may sing alternately, as if in response to each other.

What other birds do you know that have a lot of red in their coloring?
