The birds, squirrels, and chipmunks would more likely prefer suet for energy, than the sprinkles full of junk ingredients and sugar, I would think. We used to mold suet filled with approved wild bird seed mix when I was a kid. Then hung the suet forms, and suet filled orange cups, plus popcorn and cranberry ropes, on trees around the farmhouse. Make a separate feeding station, with peanuts, corn kernels, and suet. The squirrels, crows, and rabbits (add some greens for rabbits, romaine outer leaves are good, or kale, broccoli stems, raw sweet potatoes, etc.) The bigger messier animals tend to frighten away the songbirds, so separate stations are better. Suet balls can be hung in onion bags too. If you are feeding outdoor cats, add extra healthy fat and warm broth to their food. It will help them generate extra body heat. Stale bread can be put out, especially whole grain breads. The larger birds will peck at that ( so will chickens). Fruits are popular too. Cardinals love oranges (along with other birds ) grapes and berries, apple pieces, melon, especially watermelon, (cut up large fruits, please). Keep detritus cleaned up, no garbage, should pollute the sites. Audubon on line should have more ideas in this vein.
