Although these beautiful Cardinals are year-round residents, nothing says Spring has arrived more than the serenade of the flamboyant and striking Cardinal. "From its winter sleep the earth is awoken, The cycle of nature, true and unbroken. The promise of spring, of life, a new start, To fill you with faith in mind, body and heart. The perfect wheel of nature keeps spinning, With proof that an ending, is just the beginning. Rejoice in this season, may it fill you with peace, And may the blessing of nature, for you, never cease." ~~~ Unknown
