Winter Birds' Feeding Frenzy (Cats LOVE It!) 

Very well stated, Heidi! I think the 33 dislikes were from dizziness and motion sickness. Thanks for watching and for your delightful comment.

creatorwise no wonder the cats Like it flashy color's and it turns left to right and left again..that bird feeder is always in motion 😁

You are right again, Heidi. It's a revolving, perpetual motion, fast-food restaurant. I had not noticed it spins both left and right. Mesmerized by the birds, I guess.

creatorwise i havent Seen A cardinal in years i forgot how pretty they Are on white Snow..i was born in ohio ...But now live in southern germany!have a great day ...hc

Oh yes, the cardinal's vibrant red really pops against the white snow background. Wow, a fellow midwesterner, buckeye for sure. I'm Indiana hoosier (whatever that is). May you have a blessed day, and stop by often for your cardinal fix. :)

They more help in the winter than any other part of the yr.

Poor things! So happy they got the food 🌷

Yes, in particular the sedentary species

Thank you for the kind comment and God bless you.

spuffspuffs Thanks for watching, and for your kind comment. I would happily trade you a few cardinals for a few of your beautiful goldfinches and cute little robins. Lol.

In the UK, you guys have Blue Tits, Willow Tits, and Great Tits, Europe's version of our Chickadees.

I was just saying the same thing! So neat to see blue jays and red cardinals side by side!

@@cjcj1599 All American colorful natives.

We don't have many cardinals in our backyard but they come and visit occasionally

Yes, especially with the snowy background. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Awww that is so cute. I would love to see a video of that! LOL. Thanks for watching and commenting, Dina

You are so right, Vanessa! I am more blessed than I realized. I hadn't thought of that yet. Thanks for your kind comment and for loving birds! I hope you will stop by often, I will happily share my birds with you!

Thank you! So true!

Thanks for the kind comments! Glad you love them. You must be pretty happy too, if you have a few hundred. My birds explode in a kaleidoscope of color in the spring. Check out my "Spring Birds' Feeding Frenzy." Not quite as frenzied as "Winter..." but a lot more color. God bless you.

@@creatorwise Thank you God bless you and yours as well. I will check it out.

No place in paradise for the dreaded House sparrow.

You're very welcome, Kathleen, and thank you so much for watching. I hope you will stop by often to get your birdwatching "fix." Have a wonderful Christmas, and God bless you also.

Thank you, Muffin, for your kind comments, and for thanking the Creator! God bless you!

Thanks for watching and for your kind comment. Woodpeckers are prominent visitors in many of my bird videos. I have some featuring the pileated, red-headed, and hairy woodpeckers, and even the flickers.

Thanks for watching, Tara, and for your kind comment! Glad you liked it!

Thanks for your excellent comment. That is an interesting take and I will have to agree with you. The female cardinals are simply gorgeous also!

@@creatorwisewhat’s your secret? How do you attract that many birds at once to your area?

@@jacobb8396 I live in a park setting (trailer park), a small wood adjacent, so lots of birds. Other neighbors feed them also. I offer a variety of food, and some birds like the black oil sunflower seed, some like suet, some nyjer seed, some the grape jelly. When my wife was still alive we had flowers and lots of humming birds.

@@creatorwise Hmm, I see. Thank you for telling me. The point is I really love this video and I really wish I can see this many birds of all different colors in one place. Very peaceful and comforting.

Most bird lovers are nice people.

Except for the loud ass jet flying overhead.

ShadowⓋ And the gun shots.

@@sallylanoza2594 Yes-most-see below-SMH

Thanks for letting me know, I would love to watch your cat watching my birds :) Keep your eye on it, it might click "like!" LOL.

Thanks for watching and commenting, Sizzling Zombie. You are in for a lot of excitement. Don't be discouraged if it takes a while for the birds to come. They will eventually. I was using sunflower seed in this feeder. Best of luck to you!

Thanks for watching and for your kind comment! I took this video so I could share them with you. Please stop by often.

You're welcome, and thank you for the kind comments!!

You're most welcome, Julie, and thank you for sharing such a nice comment that really did make my day! I'm happy to share them with you! ❤

Thanks for watching, Ash. I agree, the cardinals and bluejays steal the show.

bluejays are very aggressive. when i lived in kansas they would chase my very large cat in the back yard. they would swoop down on her! she didn't ever try to catch them, she just flattened herself (as much as she could) into the grass. they are gorgeous though.

patricia mcdermott You are right about the bluejays, patricia. I think you will enjoy seeing a cardinal attack a bluejay at 5:27 in my albino squirrel video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dtTS1uC-5_Q.html

Noctis Spectra *its lonely and just wants friends*

Lol , always like that.....bullies...

There's always a hierarchy lol🐦

Thanks so much, Mick, for your kind comments. I never tire of watching these avian beauties, and listening to them chirping and singing, as you said. They have repaid me many fold for my expense, time and effort in feeding them. I never dreamed they would earn 41,000+ views in less than 2 years.

creatorwise I wish I was in your shoes, bro; I wish I was, to see what you see. A lovely snow blanketed landscape with natural beauty and trees all around and to have all these colourful birds visiting your place for a free meal, it really touched my heart. What more would I want? You've got what most don't have and this video proves it. Well done my friend. Greetings from Australia.

Mick Carson Yes, Mick, I certainly am blessed by our Creator with some of His special creatures. Fortunately, you DO get to see some of what I see by watching this video, which is a better, close-up view than I have through my patio door. I do have the great panorama view, but it's presently obscured by all the foliage. The leaves are starting to fall here in Indiana now, and I'll soon have that view again. Thanks for your kind comments, mate, and blessings to you.

yes it's wonderful when we help out. they know and they appreciate it. we all have a connection with everything on the planet, we aren't separate from them, we are a part of them. we would all be better souls if we realized and practiced that connection.

Hello guys. I with you a Happy Easter. Take care everyone. Cheers.

Thanks for watching, Calvin, and for your kind comments and good advice.

Thank you, Anne, for this awesome comment!. It MAKES ME SO HAPPY! And I'm sure it is the truth!

Thanks, Annie! I'm also blessed by your beautiful comments!

@@creatorwise I love them, they are so beautiful. Have a great day !

@@anniebeaudry2937 Thanks again, Annie! I'm happy to share them with you. Stop by often to enjoy "our" beautiful birds. I think you would also like "our" "Spring Birds Feeding Frenzy." It features a lot more beautiful colors of the spring birds, not quite as frenzied. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bteb0AnEE30.html

I will be happy to share my birds with you. Stop by often and watch "our" birds.

Thanks for watching and for your kind comments!

Thanks for your kind comment! I'm so glad you love those cardinals and blue jays. I think you would also love my "Spring Birds' Feeding Frenzy." It's not quite as frenzied but has a kaleidoscope of beautiful colors that will make you say "Wow and Ohh!" even more :)

I will check it out after work, I just stumbled across the birds last night so thank you! 😊

Thank you, Juan for the kind comment.

Thank you! They are called Northern Cardinals

Thank you. Yes, those redbirds really stand out against the white winter background. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for watching and commenting, Nishimura. Yes, the cardinal is a gorgeous red bird.

Nishimura Rinka Same and the Blue Jay 😍

You're right, you tube 425. Food is hard to come by when the snow is deep. When they are feeding like this it gets a little expensive, but it's worth it. They are such a joy to watch. They seem to be pretty happy.

LOL. You're so right. Little free-loader! Till Mr. Blue Jay streaks in....

Thanks for watching. What a wonderful idea!

What a neat idea.

Your step-father did a great job. I love that feeder and all the birds obviously do also. Thanks!

Thank you for your kind comment. It reminds me once again to be thankful for such a wonderful variety of colorful birds frequenting my feeders. Please stop by often for a remedy for your gag reflex.

will do! lol!

Thanks for watching, Lisa! And for figuring out a way to feed your cardinals!

Lisa Schumacker me too! It’s so frustrating because I don’t like to do the fence or deck railing thing anymore since I saw a fat rat up there once 😨, so now I HAVE to use the feeders and both the cardinal I’ve been feeding for 3 years and his mate never want to use it. They do sometimes, but not often, and it’s really frustrating cuz today for instance it’s -10 and snowing like crazy, and I went outside to put food out before the snow so my birds would have calories and be warmer, anyway, the cardinals came first thing in the morning, as usual they were the first and only birds there and had the feeder all to themselves with a mountain of seeds, and they did the high pitch feeding chirp like 3-4 times and then left, then came back and left again. 5 minutes later all the other birds came and then the squirrels came and all the foods gone and it’s snowing now. So I look outside and the cardinals are in the tree looking sad cuz there’s no food. I couldn’t even do the railing/fence thing now cuz it would be covered in snow again before the cardinals got there

Mangle Blue Jays are what’s known as bully birds.

+Arcana7609 Thanks for watching and commenting. Keep your cameras ready, you never know when you will capture some great footage.

Definitely a "fast food" restaurant. Lol. Hey, wish I were in NZ! Glad you love our Cardinals and happy to share them with you. Stop by anytime and enjoy them. Blessings.

+LOLA'S STUDIO Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, I am lucky and very blessed with all the trees and birds. Lots of leaves to rake in the fall, but it's worth it. I really enjoyed your black-capped chickadee, cardinal, blue jay and dove. You have a very nice setup for attracting and feeding birds, and your tree will mature before long :)

My backyard is facing someone's backyard...hate it. hahahahaha....The lady is watching me when she smokes....She might think" WTH u are doing here, why feeding your birds all the times". U can watch my bird videos if you like. Thanks for replying me. Have a great weekend.!!

+LOLA'S STUDIO You're very welcome. Maybe the lady should put down her cigarettes and learn how to feed the birds. Lol. Yes I will watch some more of your bird videos. Thanks and you have a great weekend also!!

HAHAHAHAHAH xoxo

no

The cardinal is a jerk hogging the perch. I once had a kamikaze cardinal who kept dive bombing into the window, for two weeks!

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for watching. I'm sure you have some beautiful birds that we don't have. At any rate, I'll happily share mine with you...stop by often to watch them. You might also want to check out my Spring Birds Feeding Frenzy for some that are even more colorful.

You're welcome and thank you very much for your wonderful compliment.

Thank you so much for your very kind comment. It absolutely made my day! :-)

@@creatorwise I'm so happy you loved my comment. Your video of these beautiful birds is so soothing and heartwarming. You made my day too, with your thoughtful response! Thanks again! :-D

@@pevensielavere22 Wow! I dearly love this comment as well because you used 2 words that touched my heart, "soothing and heartwarming." I just happened to use forms of those words in my last video, "Carolina Wrens Soothe Broken Heart." I think you would love it. Here is the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VUoRQN89m2E.html Be sure to read the Description to see why I am devastated and why I believe God sent those beautiful little wrens along in a very unusual circumstance, just to soothe my broken heart. Kind of like the way your comments are helping me right now! Thanks so much! :-D

@@creatorwise Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. It warms my heart to know you felt touched by the words "soothing and heartwarming." I am going to watch the video you mentioned "Carolina Wrens Soothe Broken Heart." Thanks for the suggestion! I love how you described your belief that God sent those wrens to you just in time to soothe your broken heart.

@@pevensielavere22 Thanks "again" for your very kind sentiments! They are so uplifting! I'm sorry to learn you also are dealing with something similar. It's gratifying to know my videos help. I must give God the credit for that! I do appreciate the balm in your words: "meditate on something joyful...life affirming...brimming with hope...Endless thanks"!!! And to you, likewise! :-D "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning" (Psalm 30:5) KJV

+Swami Joy sunflower kernal/hearts feeder (even if its only a small one) would be amazing here, if this was me, id trade the black sunflower seeds in the hopper feeder for black sunflower hearts/kernals, yes theyd dissapear fast but alot less mess and the birds would be thankful :)

+Mattfuzzy Does cost a bit more though but well worth the cost.

I am honored! Thank you so much! Enjoy the gorgeous cardinals!

Steve C Yes, Steve, Northern Cardinals is right. I somehow missed seeing your other comment and question earlier. I love your UK goldfinches, robins, tits, jays, etc. I think they are more beautiful than ours in the USA. Thanks for watching and for your kind comments.

+creatorwise Are there no squirrels in south central Indiana, near Columbus? The ones in southeastern PA would be living in those feeders. :-)

+Albury Smith LOL! Yes we have lots of squirrels here. Check out my companion video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oGe51NXXmgE.html Fast forward to the final minute. Also see my vid: Circus Squirrel Antics. They must have been taking a siesta, or they may have been feeding on the ground under the feeder at this time. I do spend a lot of time chasing them off my feeder. :-)

+creatorwise Our southeastern PA squirrels NEVER take a siesta, but nine 5" diameter, 2-foot long, 24 gauge stove pipes wrapped around the three 4 X 4 posts bearing my BIRD feeders have finally dissuaded them from climbing up and stealing all of the food, and I now have a somewhat disgruntled (but apparently resigned) ground-feeding squirrel community and much more songbird action. I enjoy all of your beautiful visitors every day, but haven't seen that many cardinals at the same time. My favorites here are the Carolina wrens, downy woodpeckers, and red-bellied woodpeckers on the suet feeders, and the white-breasted nuthatches viewing the world upside-down in quick bursts.

+Albury Smith Would've loved to have seen those squirrels trying to climb the stove pipes when you first wrapped them around the 4 x 4s. LOL. I used to think squirrels and raccoons were cute critters till I started feeding the birds a few years ago. What pests they are now. I love our cardinals but have not seen as many since this vid. You also have a great variety of my favorites too. Thanks for your fine comments.

+creatorwise There were 3 churches and a synagogue in a small Ohio town: a Baptist church, a Methodist church, a Catholic church and a Jewish synagogue. Each church and the synagogue had a problem with squirrels At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a water slide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves. The squirrels liked the slide and unfortunately knew instinctively how to swim, so twice as many squirrels showed up the following week. The Methodist church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures, so they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist Church. Two weeks later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the water slide. The Catholic church came up with a very creative strategy-they baptized all the squirrels and consecrated them as members of the church. Now they only see them on Christmas and Easter. Not much was heard from the synagogue, but it's rumored that they took one squirrel and circumcised him, and haven't seen a squirrel on their property ever since.

Thank you, Whistles, for stopping by to watch again after all those years, and for your kind and astute comments.

Thanks, steve, for watching and commenting. Just curious, what do you do with the sparrows after you catch them? Release them a few miles away?

creatorwise No problem. Since the House Sparrow is invasive I kill them and the local raptor rehab gladly excepts them. I know it sounds harsh but they do not belong here and can outcompete and kill native birds. I been into bird watching my whole life and hope to have a career in Ornithology once I finish up college. I have noticed a better variety of birds at my feeders by taking care of these pesty birds.

steve kiermaier HOSP regularly kill native species in my neighborhood and I've tried many things to scare them off, but they're so clever, they've even figured out how to get in the nest box holes that are supposed to be too small & killed "my" house wren 2 years ago, that really broke my heart. They are so territorial, they just killed the wren for being in the area they dominated. I like the idea of donating them to the raptor center. I've had to seriously cut back my bird feeding b/c they are so out of control; had to stop for a while after I got starlings, that was really too bad. I bought a sound device that made a starling distress call that scared off starlings but didn't want to annoy my neighbors too much!

Mitzi Dharma I would highly recommend getting the Deluxe Repeating Sparrow Trap. It can get both Starling and Sparrow and if any native birds got in you can release them. I am enjoying watching all native birds coming to my birders and not seeing a single Starling since last winter and only a few sparrows here and there, usually always getting them if they do come here. Good luck !

steve: Thanks for info about the trap. I'm assuming I'd be able to find it online? I live in the city and the "English Sparrows" are awful. They mob the feeders, toss the seed (at least the juncos eat the ground seed,) attack other birds, kill native birds, prevent wrens and chickadees from taking care of their babies, toss baby birds out of their nests, etc. I love it when the Coopers hawks harass them. Unfortunately, the slower mourning doves usually end up being lunch. :(

Thanks for watching and commenting, photoman. I agree. If they aren't enjoying the spin then they deserve Oscars because they sure are great actors. Lol.

Yes, their brilliant red just pops against the white snowy background. Almost makes me like the snow. LOL.

Thank you so much for your kind, enthusiastic comment!

You're welcome and thank you for watching and for your kind comments.

Thanks, Diane. I think you nailed it. They were having fun spinning around like on a merry-go-round. They were chirping because they were happy. :-)

Thanks for your kind comment. I'm very happy to share my diversity with you. Stop by often.

😊

Thanks so much for watching, commenting and noticing the "side attractions" that most overlook. Made my day!

Thanks for the nice comment, so glad Gary loves it. Sorry about the gunshots. Never heard them before or since, and that was very poor timing. I should have edited them out :( You might show Gary my "Spring Birds' Feeding Frenzy." A lot more colorful birds, not quite as frenzied though, and no gunshots. See you and Gary tomorrow morning!

Thank you for that very special comment! It really made my day!
