They say when you see one, someone from heaven is visiting you, idk all I see is them sending my monarch caterpillars to heaven, I watched one pick up a caterpillar off my milkweed carry it to my grapevine support and eat it.
This makes at least 7-8 of mine I've had them eat in two years

Those cardinals can make a pretty good argument that the butterflies are their's.....not your's. Cardinals diet consists of only about 30% insects...rest is seeds. No worries.

I love cardinals. They are my favorite bird that comes to my feeders in the winter. They are mostly seed eaters.

I see them every day at my feeders. If I don't see them I frequently hear their unique clicking calls. I love having them around. My family in Ohio calls them "Red Birds". I enjoy the Monarchs as well, but I don't think the Cardinals are that big a threat. I don't like crows or blue jays, but that's just me.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I don't get upset when birds or other animals do what they do naturally. Just a bird being a bird.

Bout the first day shift bird to start singing in the morning. I like having my first coffee on the deck being sung for by them.
