I am starting a Cardinal thread. Here in New England there are not that many really colorful birds, the Cardinal is one of them.

When it is cold Cardinals will gather near food, but I have never seen 6 pairs at once in my garden

Beautiful! I've never seen two cardinals at a time here, but they're pretty rare. To see this many in one spot is amazing!
First for me as well, the most I had seen before was 3 pairs at once
I've never even seen a pair around here. I've only ever seen a single bird, and those are just maybe once a year, if that.
Sweet pics, Mike. Glass windows/doors, lots of birds die flying into it. I'm glad this one recovered.I'd actually forgotten about this until I saw this thread, but I was able to find this in my phone's camera roll. I took this photo almost five years ago. This is right next to our front door at work. This bird actually flew right into the front door. When I went to see what that loud bang was, this little guy/gal was sitting there. I thought it was going to sucumb to injury, but it did eventually fly away on its own. Luckily it was dazed enough that I was able to get up close to it for these photos. Please excuse the "droppings", but the poor thing had to be terrified!
