Canvas - Female Northern Cardinal Baby (Cardinalis Cardinalis)

from $40.00
The Female Northern Cardinal can be identified by its pale brown color with warm reddish tinges in the wings and tail and a grey/black mask. Their bill is cone-shaped, coral colored, short and thick to allow them to crush seeds and extract their main source of food. Their beaks have special features that make cracking easier; the edges of the lower beak fit into special grooves in the upper beak. They use their tongue to maneuver seeds into the groove.

Females will normally have from 2-5 eggs and 2-3 broods per year from March to August. Incubation is almost always done by female alone and takes from 12-13 days. Both parents will feed the nestlings and young will leave nest about 9-11 days after hatching. The male may continue to feed fledglings while the female begins her next nesting attempt.
