Question by Euphie: Do birds feed other birds? I saw a male Cardinal feeding a bird the same size as him. ?
The other bird looked Juvenille, but it was not a Juvenille cardinal or a female cardinal. I’ve never seen any behavior like that before in my back yard. He was feeding him like he was his chick, but he looked big enough to be on his own.

Answer by Bob B
Some mother birds lay their eggs in other birds nests and they are then raised by the host birds. When they get larger, the birds still feed them like they would have their babies which probably starved due to the other baby bird intruding in the nest. Birds are dedicated, but some aren’t very bright.
