2prnot2p 1,071 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) The photo below shows my favorite bird. Cardinals don't fly south for the winter. Seeing them on a snowy day is one of life's treasures. Like nearly all bird species, they are monogamous. The Mr. and Mrs. hanging out on a winter day. Cute!

They nest in evergreens, like pine trees. You're most likely to see them near those. In Detroit, we have many evergreens in residential neighborhoods like mine.
