You won't come up with a red bird that's more recognized and celebrated than the Northern Cardinal. They tough out cold climates in the winter and sing from the treetops in the spring.

You can find the Northern Cardinal throughout the eastern half of the US. They are resident birds, meaning they don’t migrate. So, if you see cardinals in your yard throughout the winter, spring, and summer - you will probably see them this fall, as well!
