The red-crested cardinal is a medium-sized species showing a red head, with a red bib and a short red crest that the bird raises when excited. Belly, breast and undertail are white, with a gray back, wings, and tail.
Banding studies show the cardinals can live up to 15 years in the wild. Until the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, cardinals were trapped and kept as cage birds for their color and song.
