Fruitless search?

My favorite cardinal in our next-door neighbor’s backyard. It’s such a mess back there I can’t imagine he found much to eat.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

Maybe he is enjoying the Xmas tree that has been redecorated as an Easter tree. 😂

Get a small bird nesting box, birdbath, and a feeder ...and soon it'll be a primary resident of your garden!

Outstanding image! I do like the setting. They probably delight in it, might be a good place for bugs, worms, etc.
