Cardinal in yard!!!!!!!!!!

OMG OMG OMG OMG!  A bird other than a song sparrow (bless their hearts) was in the yard!  7:40pm, I was at the kitchen table, looked out, and lo and behold, Mr. Cardinal was on the table eating a bit of food from the plate (I think -- not totally sure if ate anything from plates, was on phone so was distracted).  Then hopped onto the ground and wandered around the tomato / ground cherry bed bit a few minutes.  Then flew up onto the roof, paused, hopped to the other roof, then flew away.

My guess is the squeaking of the song sparrows drew his attention to the yard.
