What has a symbiotic relationship with a cardinal?
The northern cardinal and the brown-headed cowbird have a symbiotic relationship. The brown-headed cowbird lays its eggs in the cardinal's nest (and in the nests of other species, too, such as the yellow warbler). This harms the cardinal's chances to reproduce. It's a parasitic relationship.
Can there be a northern cardinal in the south?

Can a cardinal lift up its baby cardinal?
No, it probably won't. If the baby is large enough to get around on it's own leave it there. It's mother is close by waiting to take care of it. If it can't get around and doesn't have any feathers you can carefully put it back in the nest. If you don't see the nest you can take it to a facility that takes care of wildlife.
Do males and females make the nest?
In some bird species, such as the Northern Cardinal and Australian Red-winged Parrot, both males and females work together to build the nest. However, in other species, like the Emperor Penguin and Ostrich, males are primarily responsible for building the nest.
What do kestrels make their nests out off?
Kestrels will generally either find a hole to nest in - in a building or tree or cliff - or reuse the nests of other birds, for example crows. As far as I know they will never actually build a nest of their own from twigs and suchlike.
Where does the male cardinal sleep when female is sitting on eggs?
During the female cardinal's incubation period, the male often sleeps nearby, typically in dense shrubs or trees close to the nest. He remains vigilant, providing protection and guarding against potential threats while also foraging for food to support both himself and the female. This behavior helps ensure the safety of the nest and the young chicks once they hatch.
In the case of cardinal chicks less than a week old if a storm blows them out of the nest would the parent cardinals carry the chicks to a safe location?
Yes they would try.
