For your trivia for the day: a group of cardinals has many collective nouns, including a “college."






Though not as vibrant in color as the males, Female Cardinals are beautiful in their own right.






Male Pine Warbler





Ironically, they prefer to nest in pine trees, hence their names.

The Carolina Wren uses the skin of snakes, hair, feathers and many other materials to build their dome-shaped nests.
