I use both words in a name when I refer to a bird. Such as 'Northern Cardinal' or 'American Robin.'

No, the word "cardinal" should not be capitalized when referring to the bird. It is only capitalized when referring to the specific title for certain high-ranking officials in the Roman Catholic Church.
