I so enjoyed watching this female Cardinal in the birdbath the other day.
She started with some serene soaking…
…then progressed to some serious splashing…
…and ended up putting on a spectacular show!
Every once in awhile, she would pause and just sit there as if she knew, without a doubt, that she looked undeniably (and irresistibly) gorgeous!
I’d say she was well aware that I was watching her, but in reality, she was well aware of another watcher – this handsome fellow below, who showed up with a food offering as a token of his affection.
She accepted the food, and then went back to her bathing, giving him a free shower on the sideline!
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – Who needs Netflix when you can go outside and enjoy such fun entertainment?!

What a diva! 😉 Great captures. 👏
Thank you! 😊
Bird bathing photos are always a delight and a laugh, which I am sure you enjoy as these birds visit, especially when the youngsters are learning the wash routine.
Definitely a delight!
I love watching birds bathe… they look like they are having so much fun!
I totally agree!
What a sweet series. 😍
Thanks!
Oh the is so sweet to see him feeding her. You know there is romance in the air. In love I’d say.
Indeed!
