    My best is that it's a juvenile cardinal. But someone else probably knows better than I!

    SEEING RED

    A man who was out of his head
    Was claiming he always saw red.
    He saw it all day,
    At work and at play,
    And saw it at night while in bed.

    Looks like a young cardinal but it seems like he is sick. I can see the skin because the feather is bald. I hope I am wrong poor guys if he is sick.

    I think it might be a scarlet tanager. Doesn't look like a cardinal to me.

    Gosh, I've never seen anything like that. Could it be someone's pet that escaped? Have you seen more than one?
