A female cardinal. They're chill.

Looks like a juvenile, too, based on the color of the beak and the general gawky teenager energy.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 17 points 3 months ago

As an expert in bird identification, I can tell you with confidence...

That is indeed a bird.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't have a good comment. I looked at the bird.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 3 points 3 months ago

Fuck you. That is so accurate! 😆

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That is one nice ass bird.

Thank you for your contribution.

I did look and it's indeed a bird. Thank you.

[–] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

The bird pictured is a bird that is good to look at.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh, I'm lookin ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I'm more serious about it than you. I'm watching that bird.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I can see your hands therefor you are not as serious about this as me.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 6 points 3 months ago

It's either a bishop or a cardinal.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Acquiring bird

[–] showmeyourkizinti@startrek.website 5 points 3 months ago

That's a nice fuckin bird.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 5 points 3 months ago

Points for being straightforward. We can’t always come up with a clever title. And yes, I looked. Thank you!

[–] troglodytis@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I did it.

[–] watersnipje@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Consider your bird looked at. It is a good bird. Nice long tail feathers and good solid munching action. 8/10.

[–] budgegeria@birdon.social 4 points 3 months ago

@2ugly2live Then let "bird" be the title

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 4 points 3 months ago

That bird is amazing.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Silly question: are they called cardinals because they look like they have huge hats?

[–] sentientity@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Looks like. Also,

A group of Northern Cardinals is called a "college," "conclave," or "Vatican."

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago

That’s one fit bird.

[–] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I would be so excited if I saw this bird up close! What a cool bird with their little Mohawk, bright eye makeup and accents. Punk AF.

[–] sentientity@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Precious creature.
