For the love of cardinals October 3, 2003
This book nicely blends the author's careful observations with published studies to present a good picture of the cardinal's year. The beautiful photographs by Barbara Garland add color to the book and complement the text; a good example is the picture of the male cardinal presenting a seed to the female. Sometimes in my rush for rarities I may neglect my own local birds, and this book will help me be more aware of my backyard. As a fan of both the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team and the Louisville Cardinals basketball team I appreciated the chapter on "Cardinal as Icon". The author can be forgiven for her occasional anthropomorphism. One theory I have heard of the Cardinals early expansion into the Midwest was the following of grain in rails and boats along the Mississippi and is now expanding westward.
