well, by lots, I mean a half dozen or so at a time. They seem to fight a lot over the food! We mainly get doves tho, mourning and white-winged, and also a fair amount of little sparrows (I assume that's what they are).
Was really excited a few months ago to see a male/female pair of cardinals stop by and grab a bite from our feeder. They never came back tho, so maybe they were traveling. My wife thought I was crazy for being so excited about seeing a cardinal... 
(we're on 'the prairie' about 30 miles west of Houston).
Great pics! Thank you!
ETA: I read about how they were introduced into the US in the 1890s, that 100 starlings were imported and let loose in NYC, and now all 200 million or so starlings in North America come from those 100 birds. Amazing.
