The Cardinal

The [tag]cardinal[/tag] has been the state bird of North Carolina since 1943. These birds are easy to spot in the forests, and their bright plumage makes them a treat. It’s one of the first birds that North Carolina children learn to recognize. The female is a much duller color, as is typical in the bird world. The cardinal mainly eats seeds, but will also eat insects and small fruits. Both the male and the female are excellent singers.
