There’s no flitting around it, this is a rare bird.
A cardinal that appears to be half-female and half-male was recently spotted in Pennsylvania.
Jamie Hill, a birdwatcher for 48 years, documented the unusual sighting in a Facebook post on Sunday.
“I had a once-in-a-lifetime, one in a million bird encounter!” he wrote.
A friend of Hill’s had told him about an “unusual bird” seen at a bird feeder in Grand Valley in Warren County.
The creature was bright red like a male cardinal on one side and brownish white like a female on the other.

Since they are only distantly related, being of a different species, genus and even family, I highly doubt that they would even mingle and attempt to mate, never mind produce offspring. The only category they share, besides of course being birds, is ‘Order’. Both are in the order Passeriformes.

Lol! The red male looks rightfully pissed off at the large male blue jay. I feel sorry for him. I know how it feels to have some big bully try to steal your girl away. Lol!

Banded Galloway cattle. Several farms with them here in Virginia.
First time I saw a herd, I thought someone was joking and had painted them.

Thanks for hijacking the thread. It started out as an interesting article iabout a male Northern Cardinal. Then you crapped all over it with your pictures.
Again, thanks for making it about you

BTW, you’ve accumulated a WEALTH of great info on your FR home page to pass along to others to help out the cause.
Actually, in the 21 long years you’ve been here, you have absolutely NOTHING.
Nice work! Keep up the good fight!

If you took the time to read the thread, you’ve seen that I posted several informative pieces about these birds.
Guess you were too busy thinking about getting back to all that extensive research you’ve done to help out the cause.
