Dakota Style Sunflower Seed
How bird feeders attract wild birds is important to understand when enticing wild birds to a garden. Not all of our feathered friends like to eat the same foods or dine at the same type of feeder as other wild birds.
How different types of bird feeders attract a variety of wild birds.
Hopper Bird feeders: (sometimes referred to as chalet or gazebo feeders) are the traditional style of feeder. Many people begin with one of these feeders when they start backyard bird feeding. A hopper feeder has a bin to hold the seed which is dispensed through openings along the base of the feeder by gravity. The birds sit on a perch or an extended part of the floor of the feeder to eat. Black oil sunflower seeds or a good quality mixed seed, work best in this style of feeder. Most of the following common backyard birds will be attracted to this style of feeder: cardinals, blue jays, chickadees, finches, redpoles, woodpeckers, and titmice.
Suet Bird Feeders: a wire plastic coated cage that holds a cake of rendered fat, usually beef (commercial type). The suet can be served as is, or mixed with a variety of seed, dried fruit, bugs and peanut butter. Suet provides a high source of energy to sustain the birds through cold nights and active days. Birds that have a taste for suet are woodpeckers, nuthatches and chickadees. But, most birds will partake of suet if served in a suet feeder, especially when they require extra energy in the spring and early summer when nesting and later to feed it to their young.
