Looks like a juvenile, too, based on the color of the beak and the general gawky teenager energy.
As an expert in bird identification, I can tell you with confidence...
That is indeed a bird.
I don't have a good comment. I looked at the bird.
Fuck you. That is so accurate! 😆
That is one nice ass bird.
Thank you for your contribution.
That is a beautiful bird

The bird pictured is a bird that is good to look at.
It's either a bishop or a cardinal.
Oh, I'm lookin ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I'm more serious about it than you. I'm watching that bird.
I can see your hands therefor you are not as serious about this as me.
I did it.
That is a right fit bird

That's a nice fuckin bird.
Points for being straightforward. We can’t always come up with a clever title. And yes, I looked. Thank you!
Silly question: are they called cardinals because they look like they have huge hats?
That’s one fit bird.
That bird is amazing.
I like the nice hay-brown color that shifts subtly to an almost light moss green before dipping into gray, with undertones of pink and peach contrasting with the black of the eyes. Truly a magnificent specimen, refined yet generous.
I would be so excited if I saw this bird up close! What a cool bird with their little Mohawk, bright eye makeup and accents. Punk AF.
Consider your bird looked at. It is a good bird. Nice long tail feathers and good solid munching action. 8/10.
Precious creature.
