WILD BIRDS
Sunflower seeds are excellent for wild birds for many reasons. Here are most of them :
Rich in nutrients – They contain proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, providing essential energy, especially in winter.
High in healthy fats – Sunflower seeds (especially black oil sunflower seeds) are packed with fats, helping birds maintain body heat.
Easy to crack open – Birds like chickadees and finches can easily remove the shell to access the seed inside. Hulled seeds are even more convenient.
Attract a wide variety of birds – Many species love sunflower seeds, including chickadees, nuthatches, goldfinches, and grosbeaks.
Available year-round – They can be offered in all seasons, particularly in winter when natural food sources are scarce.
If you’re feeding birds, black oil sunflower seeds are the best choice, as they have more fat and thinner shells than striped ones.
