Northern Cardinal dads are particularly good parents, often taking care of their fledglings while mom is busy on her second nest.
Don't worry if they look a little ratty this time of year--it's just their Summer molt. It can look scary when they lose all their head feathers at once, but they'll look stunning again as soon as they replace their old feathers.

Eastern Bluebirds are also very involved dads, bringing food, removing fecal sacs and guarding territory. They often show young birds the ropes at bird feeders, especially where to find the mealworms. :)

We regularly see young Downy Woodpeckers visiting the feeders with dad. Suet, nut and seed feeders make excellent food sources for them and many other songbirds until they are stronger and learn to forage for bugs and natural foods on their own.
