Fluffed up female Cardinal being fat. Had to paint this as I found it oddly hilarious when I saw it the other day after I refilled my feeders (and put a big pile of seeds on top of the grill). I can totally see the bearded, frumpy, fat magisterial look that could have given the Northern Cardinal its name, outside of the red coloration. You lord over those seeds, madame!

This is a cardinal with a hoard. The streams have been crossed.
