I have seen "Brazilian Cardinal" on Maui before, but never knew their name. Aloha Tom The Backroads TRaveller
Ah, GK Chesterton, a wise (and mischievous) chap indeed.
Why do you have to be blessed with such colourful birds when you already have all the colours of the rainbow in your islands?
I am stunned by the beauty of the Brazilian crested cardinal. And G. K. Chesterton gave youth great advice!
Good Morning, Cloudia. I love your sweet birds. The Cardinal is gorgeous.. Have a happy day!
awesome bird photos!
alohaaaa!!!:))
Beautiful bird, and that first quote- too true.
love your island birdies!
Luckily, I didn't listen to Chesterton. Most advice is helpful, I find.
What a sweet little man! I have never seen a cardinal like that. He's certainly special. :)
Lovely birds.

Wonderful images, Claudia! I remember the crested cardinal from my visits to the Islands. They are such neat birds. Mahalo!
Loving your birds. Challenges? I think I would like my life to be a little more meaningless for the moment...
