SO, Yes, in the picture it is a battle by three. Only one wins though..At the birdbath that day the red cardinal was the winner. Sara

Victor, Thanks for the visit to my page. I am glad you enjoyed the imagery. The other day I was feeling down and I looked out the window at the birdbath which needs to be emptied, clean and refilled but there was some water in which a male red cardinal was bathing. A bluebird came and wanted in but the cardinal was fighting him off then two goldfinches were hovering near wanting their turn. Almost as fast as they came they were gone but those few minutes made such a difference in that day and many since. Sara

Gershon, Yes, we all struggle for survival. Life isn't easy but it is so much easier for us now than it was for our ancestors in so many ways but in some ways it is harder. Thanks for dropping by. Sara
