Bird Table What is the best food to put in Bird Feeders to attract the most Birds?

Question by Patricia M: What is the best food to put in Bird Feeders to attract the most Birds?

Best answer:

Answer by Yogi T
We use a very good no corn mix from Agway, It’s their own mix and the name escapes me for the moment. We get Blue Jays, cardinals, 3 kinds of woodpeckers, doves, chickadees and a few other varieties plus the usual sparrows and finches. Black oil sunflower seed attacts many also but the shells make a big mess and there is a lot of waste. Don’t waste your money on the cheap mixes . It gets wasted and the very beautiful birds go where they serve the good stuff. They learn fast. We also serve suet cakes in a suet cage and my leftover parrot pellets in adish on the ground for the bigger birds like doves. It takes a little time to get a feeder established but once you do it will be busy. I live in the Niagara Falls -Buffalo area. Good Luck
