Cardinals are birds living in North and South America. They mate in early spring and their mating call is distinctive.

These are seed-eating birds, with strong bills.  The sexes usually have distinctive appearances; the family is named for the red plumage of the males.

Their diet includes seeds and small berries. This video was filmed in February in Central Texas.
