The Pope And His Girlfriend
Me to my son: “Casey, look! It’s a cardinal.”
Casey: “Mom, that’s not a cardinal. That’s the pope.”Â
Anyway, this is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen. The pope, pictured on the left, gets food from the feeder in my backyard. Then, he flies down to his girlfriend, pictured on the right, and feeds it to her.Â
I know they’re girlfriend and boyfriend because Louisiana has not yet passed legislation to recognize holy matrimony between cardinals. It probably has something to do with the whole clergy thing.
I need to watch stuff like this since returning to work after vacation abruptly reinstated stress in my life. Â

do you think the boyfriend cardinal feels obligated to feed the grilfriend cardinal OR that he just wants to because he loves her?
birds are very confusing
i guess she has a plan,?so when you get the screen porch built you plan on sittin out there and birdwatch?
