Birds and Butterflies

The Cardinals are back!
Aaron sat for a long time and tried to get a chickadee to eat out of his hands. There was one brave one that couldn't quite get up enough courage to go all the way to Aaron. He would fly down until he was about 2 feet away and then fly back to a branch.
My parents are visiting and we made our annual trip to the Butterfly House.
It was a sunny day and the butterflies were very active.

Cardinals stay through the winter, don't they?

Very nice bird & butterfly pix! :-)

Yes, they do. We just haven't seen ours around. We have had a pair of them each year that usually make a nest in one of our bushes.
