Check out this one-eyed cardinal that's been visiting my dad's bird feeder.
Yeah, maybe. As for the cap, she visited again when the sun was at a different angle and her cap feathers aren't black. They're reddish brown. Between the lighting and the grime from her wound it just looked black.
Ya, the images showing her eye definitely don't show the cap being as prominent. But that eye, specialists might be curious. I am most certainly not a specialist ๐ essentially, it was folks like you that caught on to that with finches in thr first place! I'll stop bugging you about it haha
