A RED BIRD COUNTRY CHRISTMAS WE SHARED IN 2019
“Christened the Christmas bird for its spectacular red color, the cardinal has become a symbol of the beauty and warmth of the holiday season. A glimpse of this brilliant bird brings cheer, hope and inspiration on a gray, wintry day. As nature’s reminder for us to focus on our faith, the cardinal’s scarlet plumage represents the blood of Christ shed for the redemption of mankind.” – (From Bronners Christmas Wonderland, 25 Christmas Lane, Frankenmuth, Michigan.)
