Black Oil Sunflower Seed is the #1 choice for wild bird feeding. It will be the first seed to disappear from your bird feeders.
Black oil sunflower seed has a higher percentage of meat and is a very nutritious source of high quality protein. The softer outer shell is easy for small birds like Chickadees, Nuthatches, Titmice, Pine Siskins, Wrens, and Finches to crack open
It will also attract many other visitors including, Northern Cardinals, Mourning Doves, Downy, Hairy and Red-bellied Woodpeckers.
Black oil sunflower seeds also boast a high concentration of oil which is especially important in the winter. Birds will use their oil glands to spread the oil over their feathers to keep them buoyant, dry and warm.
