Backyard Birds of Maryland Mug — Labeled Cardinal, House Finch, Mourning Dove & Carolina Wren (11oz)

Four birds you actually see from a porch in Maryland — each one labeled by name.

Every bird on this mug is on the list of species that Maryland volunteers in Project FeederWatch (Cornell Lab of Ornithology) report at their feeders most often. So it works as a small field guide you hold every morning, not a generic set of songbirds from somewhere else.

On this mug: Northern Cardinal · House Finch · Mourning Dove · Carolina Wren

The Northern Cardinal doesn't migrate, so the pair in your yard in July is usually the pair in your yard in January. Sunflower seed keeps them coming.

The House Finch is the streaky brown finch whose males wear a red head and breast. It usually arrives in small groups and settles in on a tube feeder of sunflower seed.

The Mourning Dove is the soft, cooing one that feeds on the ground under the feeder, picking up whatever the others drop.

The Carolina Wren is the loud little brown bird with the white eyebrow and the cocked tail, and it stays through the winter.
