Content | Ear corn is a popular and beneficial food option for birds, providing a range of benefits that contribute to their health and well-being. Here's a description highlighting the benefits of ear corn for birds:
- Nutritional Value: Ear corn contains whole kernels that are rich in carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. These nutrients provide a concentrated source of energy, essential for the metabolic needs of birds. The high-fat content in ear corn is especially valuable during colder months, helping birds maintain body temperature and energy levels.
- Natural Foraging Experience: Birds are naturally inclined to forage for food, and ear corn provides an opportunity for them to engage in their instinctive feeding behavior. The intact kernels on the cob require birds to peck and extract the grains, offering mental stimulation and fulfilling their foraging instincts.
- Attracts a Variety of Bird Species: Placing ear corn feeders or scattering ear corn on the ground can attract a diverse range of bird species. This promotes biodiversity and creates an enjoyable birdwatching experience. Birds such as jays, woodpeckers, finches, and sparrows are often drawn to ear corn, adding vibrancy and activity to your backyard or garden.
- Seasonal Feeding Option: Ear corn can be particularly beneficial during colder months or times when natural food sources are limited. Providing ear corn to birds ensures they have access to a reliable food source, helping them sustain energy levels and survive harsh conditions.
- Beak Conditioning: Pecking at the kernels on the cob helps naturally condition a bird's beak. The repetitive motion of cracking open the kernels and extracting the grains helps keep the beak properly worn down, promoting healthy beak growth and function.

Nyjer is best used in tube feeders with small feeding ports of thistle socks. Nyjer seed is not attractive to squirrels and may help keep your feeders squirrel free.
Nyjer is a thin, small black seed from the African yellow daisy, and although it is not actually related to the thistle plant or thistle weeds, it is often referred to as "thistle seed." Nyjer-loving birds are sometimes referred to as 'clinging birds' because they are many times seen acrobatically clinging to the sides of feeders instead of perching while feeding. You'll even see them eating upside down on occasion!

| Safflower seeds provide a nutritious, high protein seed for wild birds, while discouraging squirrels! Use safflower seeds to create a seed mix of your own.
Nutritional safflower seed attracts cardinals, titmice, chickadees, and finches while deterring pesky intruders. Squirrels and blackbirds dislike the taste of safflower, so they'll leave your feeder alone. High in protein and energy value, safflower offers the nourishment wild birds need. Nitrogen-flushed and sealed to keep seeds fresh and insect-free. Gradually mix in with other seed.
No better choice for when you want to create a seed mix of your own. Individual seed bags allow you to pick and choose.
