I have posted this an another community not sure I would get an answer so I am posting it here as well.
3 years ago when my brother died I returned home from the funeral and a male cardinal was sitting by my window. I thought maybe it was my brother telling me he passed and was at peace. Now, whenever I see a cardinal I think of him. However, yesterday we had to say goodbye to our beloved fur baby but right before the veternarian arrived at our house I was wondering outloud who was going to be on the other side to welcome him and help take care of him. I looked out my window and saw a female cardinal. Then approx an hour after he passed a male cardianl came right up to our window and stayed there flapping his wings for a few seconds. 24 hours later and the male is just hanging out on our patio occassionally flying right up to the window to show us his there. I know it is a sign, it is someone trying to tell me they have our boy, they are taking care of him and he is going to be ok. Question: anyone get a feeling of who it might be? It could be my brother and while he loved dogs he was not a very nurturing type on earth. Might be him but want to see if anyone can get a read on this. Thanks
