Special Visited from a Red Cardinal - Critter 93

Saturday, March 15, 2025
We have a special visit from red Cardinal. From several resources in internet, it could be at least two meanings. 


Fig 01 - A red cardinal. 

First, the sick birds might not act as usual, hence, the birds perching on hand could be infected, their diseases can be passed to humans.

In fact, somebody in our state passed from bird flu from exposure to chickens. Moreover, there is a report on current spread of bird flu among wild birds, even in lower cases in our state (Louisiana). Other states include:
- Texas.
- Indiana
- Oklahoma and Wisconsin.

Second, Cardinals come to human could have spiritual meanings. From Googling, "a cardinal can represent love, hope, and a reminder of bonds with loved ones who have passed away. A cardinal can be a sign of God's love or the presence of an angel!"

Their colors are stunning with purple and gold when blooming. Other purposes to plant Petunia are attracting pollinators such as:
- hummingbirds
- butterflies
- bees
- beetles
- and other insects

The visitors come to Petunia midnight gold due to its rich in nectar. We saw two species of hummingbirds frequently feed on nectar, they are Ruby-throated and Rufous hummingbirds.
