Of the seven species of birds including the name cardinal, the Northern Cardinal is the only cardinal found in the wild in the northern hemisphere. The cardinal is one of only two North American conical beak birds that have crests--the other is the pyrrhuloxia, whose US range is limited to the Southwest, including West Texas.  Due to the brilliant red color on the male, the cardinal looks spectacular in suncatchers, windchimes, and glass collectibles--select one for your home today!
