Safflower Seed

Safflower seed is a small, white conical seed that is high in protein and fat.

 

Safflower SeedIf squirrels, pigeons, blackbirds, doves and grackles crowd your feeder and chase away the birds you want to see, you may want to try the Safflower Seed Solution  Blackbirds, grackles and squirrels typically find the seed unsatisfying and bitter. We say typically, but not always. But it wouldn't hurt to try.

 

You can use it in any sunflower seed feeder or scatter it on the ground to attract birds that normally don't like to perch on feeders such as Cardinals.

 

Types of birds attracted to Safflower:
cardinals, chickadees, jays, grosbeaks, house finche, white-breasted nuthatch, purple finch, red-bellied woodpecker, titmice

 

Note: We use eBirdseed.com  for our wild bird food source because they have free, fast shipping, a large, high-quality selection of seed and have superb customer service (when I had a question one of the owners, Gordon, responded to my email in minutes).

 

In addition, eBirdseed.com works directly with farmers, grower co-ops and seed processors to deliver the freshest and most nutritious bird seed. This isn't the cheap seed at your local discount store that been sitting in a warehouse, has lost most of its nutritional value and is full of "filler" seed that birds don't like.
