The True Mr. Cardinal

He sure doesn't look like the sleek cardinal I usually see - he's just had the best bath in the fresh cool bird bath - know it felt good in these temperatures but you wouldn't guess it from his expression.

Birds are so hilarious when they bath. I am envious as we have no Cardinals out here and I grew up with them. Whenever I visit back east I try to get a shot...never can.
