We currently have young fledgling Cardinals and Mockingbirds being fed by parents, here in our suburban yard in southeast Davidson County.

We've had several nests in one season in this shrub, but I never recall any active nests with chicks beyond mid-July at the latest. This morning I heard the sound of recently-hatched chicks in the bush, and to my surprise a female Cardinal was feeding what appeared to be two chicks. We're mid-August; this seems rather late to me to have an active Cardinal nest-- or any nest for that matter.
