Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How GORGEOUS!!!!! I just love him..... I would have a hard time not keeping him for a pet
But I would just tell myself again and again he would be sad inside
Glad hes ok. What a treat to be able to hold a cardinal in your hands..
Beautiful male.
My sis had a female who liked to peck her deck door or the side mirrors of the cars.

we have the decals and almost never get birds flying into the window anymore so this was quite a shock!! Had to bring him in though so the resident ferals didn't get him!! after about 10 minutes he was over being stunned and flew away!

Oh my gosh, he is beautiful! I wish I got to hold a cute cardinal in my hands.
omg how beautiful is he! that must have been soo special to get to hold him in your hands!
Wow, so pretty...=o
Once, when I was in middle school, I was walking to school, and I found, in the grass, a little starling. It was winter, and the dew on the grass had frozen, and it was very cold. This poor little starling had frost and ice all over his back and wings, and didn't even move when I walked by him. I picked him up and kept him in my pocket for about ten minutes, as I walked, and then he started struggling, so I lifted him out of my pocket, and he flew away. =) I felt so happy that I might have saved his life, since there were (and still are!) SO many feral cats in that area...Thankfully, I didn't catch any zoonotic diseases from it, and I hope he lived a long healthy life.
I'm really glad that your little cardinal was okay and got to fly away safely. =)

I am very very jealous! I just love cardinals and they seem to have been popping up everywhere lately......what a gorgeous bird!
I love Cardinals. They brighten up an otherwise long winter.
A few years back this little fella flew into my window. Like the Cardinal it took only minutes for him to recover then I released him. I was afraid the neighborhood cats would get him.
In the 2nd pic, he had his eyes closed and was 'panting'. Poor fella was in shock but he came around pretty quickly. I'm amazed he didn't break his neck.
