I haven\'t always had so many cardinals in winter. I think it might have something to do with leaving my flower gardens alone in the fall - as I know there are lots of flower seeds that the birds eat. Don\'t you agree, the birds (a big variety) should be able to find lots of food in all these spent flowers? I don\'t get real (REAL) serious about feeding the birds until the snow/ice starts falling. I let them fend for themselves for a while.
