Petunia just told me she saw a little bird with a "funny hairdo" sitting on the rock in the birds water dish. I stepped to the door to see a tiny baby cardinal, soaking wet, eating seeds that had fallen from the feeder. S/he can obviously fly - how else could they have gotten there - but when Sharky came home, the baby hopped from one end of the porch to the other to get away from him. I think because s/he's so young and wet that it still feels comfortable to hop instead of fly. So sweet. I tried to take a couple of pics but they didn't turn out.
