Which birds will visit if I use this mix?

This blend is intended to appeal to many common backyard species. The black oil sunflower seeds draw high-energy eaters, while millet and grains attract ground foragers and smaller songbirds.

• Cardinals, chickadees, and woodpeckers prefer larger seeds like sunflower.
• Buntings, grosbeaks, and sparrows are attracted by the varied grain content.
• Juncos and towhees will feed on spilled grains under platform feeders.

How should I use it with different feeder types?

Audubon Park Year Round Wild Bird Seed works in most common feeders so you can mix and match depending on the birds you want to attract. Use tube feeders for small songbirds, hopper or platform feeders for larger species and ground-feeding visitors, and smart feeders for automated dispensing.

• Tube feeders: fill for chickadees, finches, and small songbirds.
• Hopper/platform feeders: ideal for cardinals, grosbeaks, and woodpeckers.
• Ground feeding: scatter a small amount under cover or on tray feeders for juncos and towhees.
• Smart feeders: compatible with timed dispensing to reduce waste and spoilage.

Is this seed suitable for year-round feeding and seasonal changes?

The blend is formulated to provide consistent energy and variety through changing seasons without needing frequent recipe swaps. Its combination of sunflower, millet, and grains supplies calories for cold months and quick energy for breeding and migration periods.

• High-energy black oil sunflower supports birds during cold weather.
• Millet and grains offer steady nutrition in spring and summer.
• 10-pound bag size reduces refilling frequency across seasons.

Will this mix create mess or attract unwanted animals?

Any mixed seed can produce spill and attract ground-foraging mammals if placed openly. Minimize mess by using tray liners, seed catchers, or platform feeders with rims, and keep feeders clean to reduce mold and pests.

• Use seed trays or baffles to limit spillage to the ground.
• Clean feeders regularly to prevent mold and leftover buildup.
• Install squirrel baffles or place feeders away from easy jumping points.
