This is a sort of 'get well' gift for my grandpa, who currently is rehabilitating in the hospital. He loves to watch birds just outside his window, especially cardinals. Since he can't watch them in the hospital, I'm giving him one to tide him over until he's better.
That's very sweet, and beautiful bird. I like the snow falling past and the bright shade of red you chose. Hope your grandfather liked it, and hope he is feeling better.
