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 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.

What does a cardinal nest look like?
A cardinal nest is typically a cup-shaped structure made of twigs, grasses, and leaves, often lined with softer materials like feathers or pine needles. It is usually placed in dense shrubs or trees, about 3 to 10 feet off the ground. The nest is relatively small, measuring around 3 to 4 inches in diameter, and has an opening that faces upward. Cardinals often build their nests in secluded areas to protect their eggs and young from predators.
