HOW TO ATTRACT A GREATER VARIETY OF BIRDS

Each bird has food preferences, and these may change seasonally. Offering multiple kinds of foods throughout the year will help attract a greater variety of birds to your bird feeding station on a regular basis.

Recommended Foods
Beyond our regionally-formulated seed blends, we recommend offering a broad selection of foods that attracts a greater variety of birds and meets their nutritional needs.

Peanuts – The best single source of protein and fat for birds. Some birds will cache nuts to retrieve later, making repeated trips to feeders to gather food.

Nyjer® (thistle) – Goldfinches’ favorite food. Nyjer’s high oil content is an excellent energy source for active birds and is best used in our specially-designed finch feeders.

Mealworms – Attracts common and uncommon insect-eating birds like bluebirds and wrens. Because mealworms crawl, place them in a smooth-sided feeder where they cannot crawl out.

Nectar – Hummingbirds’ favorite food. It’s important to continue offering nectar in areas where some hummingbirds stay in winter.

Suet – Woodpeckers’ favorite. Suet is a high-energy, pure-fat substance that birds enjoy all year long. It is particularly helpful in winter when birds need more calories to stay warm.

Seed Cylinders – The quickest, simplest, longest-lasting way to feed your birds. Available in a variety of flavors, our seed cylinders meet the nutritional needs and feeding behaviors of a number of different birds.

Seed & Suet Stackables – The quickest, simplest way to feed your seed- and suet-eating birds at the same time.

Jim’s Birdacious® Bark Butter® - The perfect blend of fat and protein, no other single bird food attracts a greater variety of species; 76 and counting.
