The cardinal is a songbird of the fringilidae family, new world seedeaters, They are closely related to grosbeaks, in fact, the old name was cardinal grosbeak. They begin to sing in March in the South, and within weeks the eggs are laid. The young are fed insects until they can fly, when they take on the seed eating habits of the parents. Cardinal males are basically red, with a black mask, females and young are gray brown with some red in the tail and wings. They are basically nonmigratory.
