It's too hot

So the cardinals are shedding feathers!  I don't know if this is the same cardinal that was almost bald last summer but he has lost feather around his head and on his sides.  But today he spent time at the feeder with three youngsters.  It was such a joy to watch him popping seeds in their mouths.

I did put cool water in the bird bath...the blue jays and the blue birds plus a few others came for a dip and drink but the cardinals never went to the pool.   Too busy eating the fresh seed since the feeder had run out of seed while we were gone.  

A few other shots in the extras.
