A male cardinal, the finest singer along an Indiana river, sets out in spring to find a mate and win her with his song, while hunters and the changing seasons threaten them both. Gene Stratton-Porter's short nature romance, here in Ernst Lundquist's Swedish translation, follows the birds through courtship and the making of a home.
