As voracious as SQs are, they don’t seem to eat meat.
The cat food is either dried up canned wet, or pieces of dry cat food. So SQs
don’t eat.
Besides, tho I have baffles on feeder poles, plenty of bird seed ends up on
ground & SQs share (?) that w doves & other ground feeders.
I also sacrifice
Yesterday, when I was scattering on ground some leftover indoor cat food near
backyard feeders for the crows - from a little white plastic dish -
all of a sudden a bird flew in from behind me and almost landed on my hand that
held the dish! I wore dirty white winter gloves.
But I guess it then
I think when it is cold & snowy like it is, they seek easy food at feeders. I
have had as many as 8 Cardinals here in this kind of weather.
Also, larger flocks of other species, s. a. Goldfinches, MoDos & House
Sparrows appear in “bad” weather.

I woke up this morning to a flock of northern Cardinals at my feeder‘s
There were approximately 15 to 20 both male and female, it was hard to tell
they keep chasing each other all over the place
I have never had this many Cardinals at one time anyone else seen this?
Any ideas of what’s going on?
