My backyard birds LOVE this seed! I can’t keep my BirdBuddy full with how much they enjoy it. My most frequent visitors—mourning doves, cardinals, house finches, eastern bluebirds, chickadees, pigeons, robins, and goldfinches—love this stuff. I go through a bag at least once a week for my single feeder. I love that it also attracts birds I never even normally see in our crowded suburban neighborhood—especially during peak breeding or migratory seasons. I use this one year-round as my birds seem to prefer it over more basic seed mixes.

BIRDIES AND SQUIRRELS ARE ENJOYING THIS FOOD. I MIX IT WITH AN AUDUBON VARIETY TO GIVE MORE NUTS TO 3 YOUNG SQUIRRELS. I'VE ALSO ADDED MORE SUNFLOWER SEED CHIPS. NO MESS SEEDS ARE A BIT MORE EXPENSIVE BUT IN THIS SUPER FRIGID OHIO NORTH COAST WEATHER (LORAIN COUNTY), MANY BIRDS COME AT A TIME TO MY FEEDING TABLE AND THEY NEED TO EAT QUICKLY. WAGNER'S DOESN'T HAVE CORN PIECES. NOTHING ENJOYING THE FEED TABLE EATS CORN. THERE'S A MESS OF CORN BITS ALL OVER THE DEEP SNOW PILES AND DRIVEWAY. THERE IS 1 YOUNG MALE JUNCO WHO GUARDS THE TABLE AND WON'T LET OTHERS FEED. WE SPREAD THE FOODS AROUND SO ALL CRITTERS HAVE ACCESS TO IT. STARLINGS BARGING IN MAKE A MESS SCATTERING SEEDS/NUTS TO THE GROUND BUT THOSE GROUNDED BITS ALLOW FOR SMALLER BIRDS TO SNATCH THEM UP.*** WARNING: NEVER FEED WILDLIFE SALTED SEEDS OR FOODS! I'VE SEEN SEVERAL REVIEWS FROM BUYERS STATING THEY DO. LOOK FOR BLANCHED NUTS AND HEAT TREATED NO GROW SEEDS. YOU CAN BUY SPICEY SEASONINGS TO ADD TO SEEDS. I ONCE PUT OUT SOME STALE SPICEY CHEESE CRACKERS. OH MY THE NEIGHBORHOOD SPARROWS CAME AND HAD A FEAST! THE RACKET THEY MADE, ENJOYING THE FLAVORS AND WIPING THEIR BEAKS ON THE METAL FENCE RAILS.... I WOULDN'T PUT THOSE OUT WHEN'S THERE'S NO FRESH WATER AVAILABLE. I WITNESSED JUNCOS LEARNING TO EAT PEANUTS BY WATCHING SPARROWS BREAK NUTS APPART. MARLENE ><t>

Some of my birds really like it . Some don't appear to care for it . But all in all.. good for the birds

All the birds and other kritters love this food, it never lasts long.

Great value and I love that there's no mess...and my birds love this; all types of birds except grackles! Cardinals, blue jays (for the peanuts), small birds, woodpeckers, robins....and squirrels!

This 5lb bag lasted me almost a week. I put an 8oz scoop in the feeder when I get home in the afternoon & scatter almost that much on the ground... maybe 12-15 ft away from the feeder, mostly an attempt to keep the squirrels busy. What I scatter on the ground feeds squirrels, redheaded woodpeckers, blue jays, cardinals, doves, a variety of little birds I never see in the feeder, turkeys & sometimes black bears. On my days off I'll put a scoop in the feeder & on the ground 2-3 times. I can't fill my feeder full & leave it- all it takes is 1 dang squirrel to eat the whole thing- if I don't catch him! That's why I only fill it when Im home- so I can stand guard! In Spring, Summer & Fall I have to watch for bears trying to get it. This brand is a good mix- heavy on the nuts & sunflower pieces with some fruit. The sunflower seed "pieces" look tiny like crumbs but that's ok- finches, chickadees & small birds love it!! And because it's pieces- there's no shells, so you're getting a bag of all eatable food. I have a big redheaded woodpecker that typically only eats what I throw out on the ground- because he is so big he has a hard time landing on & getting from the feeder. He likes the nuts in this food so well, after what's on the ground is gone he'll make attempts at the feeder. I feel like $14 a week is a lot, for me, to spend on critter food- but it is SUCH A JOY to watch them all!!! It's nothing for me to have 5or 6 at the feeder, one on top of the pole waiting, as well as 6-8 more on the porch banisters waiting their turn, along with 6-8 on the ground pecking below the feeder. I am seeing a variety of migratory birds as well because they are ones I have never seen before- that's pretty interesting. I wish it came in bigger than 5lb bag so I didn't have to buy every week. I would definitely buy this brand again, but I will be looking everywhere for more like a 20lb bag.

The birds and squirrels have gone absolutely NUTS over this seed. Blue jays and cardinals are the only birds that seem to come to my feeder but I think that’s bc the jays are super territorial. I’ve bought so many different kinds of seeds before and they would come, but weren’t super interested. Now I have to refill the feeder almost every day. My cats love watching the birds and squirrels on the feeder from the back door
