For a while now, this little Cardinal has accompanied her Daddy to the feeder area. He'd perch and eat while she remained on the ground. When she'd cry, he'd come to her with a piece of safflower seed and then return to his meal. I noticed in the last couple of days that he was less quick to respond to her cries and even turned away when she'd jump in front of him, begging for a morsel. Today, her twittering from below seemed to fall on deaf ears, so she flew up to join him on the feeder. As you can see, he was all to willing to feed her there. I'm sure she'll be frequenting the feeder alone shortly, able to feed herself. I was so happy to have been an onlooker throughout the process and doubly happy to catch this precious shot.
