| OpaFinchYay 06/06 01:13PM | I agree. |
| JumpingBean88 06/06 01:14PM | BigRedCards99, I thought about you the other morning as I was watching a local cable program on the breeding habits of Cardinals. Did you know that the father bird will care for the babies after they are hatched while the mother prepares for more children. I found that absolutely fascinating! If only my Frank would have done the same for me! LOL |
