Male Red Cardinal

male red cardinal rules the feed trough by strong force... nuthatcher eats seed
I was watching the birds at some food that I had placed out on a steroform plate.. A Male Red Cardinal would run all the birds away then this tiny little Nuthatcher would fly in and get one seed..The Cardinal seemed to keep watch while the Nuthatcher ate maybe five or six seeds..

maybe you should use "steals" for "eats" since the red bird is allowing him to get in there and get one!!! While the others can't. It makes you wonder why this bird is allowed to get away with it!!

I enjoyed this Haiku, it made me think of throwing bread to pigeons when you have an agressive one that trys to scare of the weaker ones.

We see cardinals all year long here in Wisconsin. I think they are the most beautiful in the wintertime, when their red color contrasts with the white snow. A very nice haiku, Sara. Well done!...Thank you for the kind visit. I really do appreciate it!
