It was so exciting to see these youngsters--
could they be from the nest that was discovered several months ago?

It looks like a juvenile female above and with more information it was for sure.
Young males, as they are developing, look like grown females. And as time went on it did become apparent that this was a female.
And then along came this juvenile male above--no problem identifying this guy!
It was a little disappointing to realize that these birds are about a year old,
based on information that I found. The cardinals usually mate for life and have up to 4 broods a year.
