FURRIN FEATHERS IS PAINTED ON 18 CT CANVAS AND MEASURES 10.5 X 15
Hello! Audubon Hotline? Guess what I saw in Honolulu - the All American Bird: same size and shape as our cardinal, but it was red, WHITE AND BLUE! Forget the bald eagle! This should be our national bird...it's what? An exotic? You mean a furriner? The Brazilian Cardinal? Introduced in Hawaii; common on Oahu? Reported in Florida, Connecticut and Pennsylvania? Tell you what, I'll call back if it shows up at my feeder. Hey, wouldn't that be a real red-white-and-blue letter day? Charley Harper, 1996 |
