Catbirds

[Hawg]

I'm still trying to figure out why my birds are down so much the last couple years. I noticed Sunday when my first Orioles were coming around that the Catbirds kept chasing them, and anything else that came to the feeder, away. Are they one of those birds that will chase other species away? I do have a couple new cats around too, that only seem to come around at night. I have a game camera on the feeder to know if I have to get back into the skunk trapping business, so I know the cats are there at night. Could Catbirds be part of my problem?
