Thank you - my theory is that since these are Cardinals their Southern brothers and sisters got lost and are in Oklahoma .... these have no Southern manners at all ...
Hormones ? Oh, that's when the Robins get very obnoxious !

.. from: All About Birds

" During foraging, young birds give way to adults and females tend to give way to males. Cardinals sometimes forage with other species, including Dark-eyed Juncos, White-throated Sparrows, other sparrow species, Tufted Titmice and Goldfinches."

Seems to explain some of the behavior seen here ...

Looks like the only place they "flock together" is Oklahoma!
Nice capture, btw.

Yeah - what gives with 'flocking in OK'? Maybe she feeds them the "good stuff" ?

Thanks for the comment, btw ..
