This morning I heard a cardinal sing in the spruce tree outside my bedroom window. The sound of the cardinal song was so beautiful, I stopped in my tracks. The sound represented summer and sunshine and cut grass. It took me only seconds to figure out it was a cardinal. I wondered what it was about the sound of a cardinal that makes it so special? They're here all winter. Cardinals are common in my yard. Later in the day I saw that two people wrote on the Minnesota Ornithological Union listserve emails appreciating the sound of a cardinal. I wasn't the only one today who was struck by the beauty of the cardinal song. Listen for yourself. The cardinal sounds as pretty as it looks conspicuous.
