Finch Bird Feeders-Not Just For Finches
Not Just for Finches Nyjer seed, also called thistle, is an excellent choice for feeding wild birds as it will attract a great many species for your viewing pleasure. Goldfinches adore thistle seed, and a common misconception is they are the only birds who eat it. Not true! Depending on region, you’ll attract American Tree Sparrows, Black Capped Chickadees, Chipping Sparrows, Dark-Eyed Juncos, Eastern Towhees, House Finches, Indigo Buntings (pictured above), Pine Siskins, Purple Finches, Song Sparrows and Tufted Titmice.
Finch bird feeders come mostly in tubular models, with or without perches. Thistle, or nyjer is also a great choice as the seed does not germinate. This means no weeds below your feeder from fallen seed. So, fill your finch feeder with nyjer seed and enjoy the show!
