This isn't the first time I've caught this male cardinal going for a midnight snack, but it is the best of the pictures. I've always heard that cardinals are diurnal, but we keep catching this one eating well after dark.
When I arrive at this house, he will fly around near me and chirp if the seed is low. If they have plenty, he has nothing to say to me.
I attract feral cats and wildlife to this particular property so they will trigger the motion sensing lights and give the place the appearance of being occupied. It is very low cost, but from the feedback, extremely effective. I feed the birds for my enjoyment, but I was surprised by the night time shots of the cardinal.
