OH, good I found one close to the top that I somehow had missed. I really love the visual this one gives me. Just love seeing a red bird in winter. Bye now, time for me to get to aerobics. LUv, Andrea

Date: 1/4/2011 12;30 PM Just wanted to read more of your work. I like this haiku. It brought a smile to my tired and sleepy brain. It was a determined bird, wasn't he? We had some cardinals here for awhile, but the cold weather caused them to fly away. Have a great day, Papagallo

I won't be seeing any cardinals outside for at least a few months. Your very descriptive haiku has got me wishing that the wait won't be as long.

This is such a cute image, Sara. I'm glad the cardinal was able to peck his way to refreshing water beneath the ice. Delightful! Love, Carolyn

I live in Cardinal Nation and if you don't know what that means ask a baseball fan and they will tell you.
