kfhgw Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I took this picture on Aug 2, 2023 in Southwest Wisconsin. Is this a Juvenile Female Cardinal getting her adult color or is she sick? I monitor my feeders for sick birds and just don't want to be spreading anything. Thanks in advance, Karen Gramigna-Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
