How to Draw a Cardinal Bird. The northern cardinal, also called the red bird, is a common sight at bird feeders throughout North America. Due to the abundance of sunflower seeds available in garden feeders, the cardinal has expanded its range in recent years. Setting up a bird feeder is easy; Cardinals are beautiful to watch.
A lovely fact about cardinals is that they mate to run. Pairs generally stay within earshot of each other's calls. Cardinal pairs can raise four chicks a year and have been known to mourn a deceased pair.
Cardinals frequently figure in the artwork. Dishes and decorations for the holiday season often feature red birds nestled among snowy evergreen branches.
Many sports teams use the cardinal as a mascot, most notably the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. It is even the accepted state bird in seven forms: West Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, and Virginia.
