SideDish Feeder with Mealworms
Tree Nutty Woodpecker Feeder |
Each bird species 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 FoodsBeyond 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. PeanutsThe 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. MealwormsAttracts 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. NectarHummingbirds’ favorite food. It’s important to continue offering nectar until all the hummingbirds have migrated, which in our area can be as late as the end of October. Note - You may go days between sighting as the month moves on, esp since some birds will stop for only a few minutes as they travel south and you may miss seeing those individuals. SuetOne of woodpeckers’ favorites. 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 CylindersThe 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 StackablesThe 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. Created with a soft consistency which you can spread on tree trunks or special feeders. |
