Life is Good! & Red-Cowled Cardinal.

By brazilianpioneerbirder

Hello!

Yesterday,  afternoon, at 04:30 pm, when the sun was not so hot…Me and my wife, took our son to a nearby playground.  We all had a great time: My son found three other kids to play with, my wife met the grand-mother of one of them & started a nice conversation…My hightlight was finding my first Red-Cowled Cardinal in the city of Aracajú! This is an endemic bird to Brazil & the only one that has “cowled” on its name…

There is a nice picture of it at: http://www.arthurgrosset.com/sabirds/photos/pardom4966.jpg

I saw it, at the very moment, when it perched high on a tree…then, a few minutes later it started singing…

Sitting on a bench & seeing everyone having fun, including  me & bird , as well, I could get to  just one conclusion:  Life is Good!

Happy Easter!

Paulo Boute.
