Young cardinal

Morning was sunny and quiet.  The juvenile cardinal's beak was beginning to turn orange.  Some feathers looked red so I think it's a male.  He foraged on the ground and stayed out of the drama overhead where at least four chickadees competed with house finches and cardinals for access to sunflower seeds.  

A molting Carolina wren complained that the barkbutter dish was empty.
