Feeding Tips

Place feeders in quiet, sheltered locations near trees or shrubs to give birds a sense of safety. Keep feeders clean and dry, and refill them consistently — birds learn to rely on dependable food sources. Offering fresh water nearby will also encourage more visits.

Different mixes attract different species. Sunflower-heavy blends draw cardinals and grosbeaks, while millet-based mixes appeal to sparrows and juncos. Experiment to discover which birds visit your area.

For backyard bird enthusiasts throughout the Mid-Atlantic region, selecting the right seed mix can make all the difference in the variety and health of visiting birds. Meyer Seed Company has long understood that different species have distinct preferences, which is why their bird seed offerings are thoughtfully curated to appeal to the local avian population. Black oil sunflower seeds serve as a reliable foundation in many blends, drawing in familiar visitors like cardinals, chickadees, and finches. These nutrient-rich seeds provide essential energy, especially during colder months when natural food sources grow scarce. A well-balanced mix ensures that your feeders remain active and vibrant across every season, supporting the birds that bring life and song to your backyard throughout the year.

Beyond the standard favorites, specialty blends open up the possibility of attracting an even wider array of feathered visitors. Meyer Seed Company recognizes that bird watching is a year-round pursuit, and the right seed selection can transform any outdoor space into a lively sanctuary. Whether you are hoping to spot the flash of a goldfinch or the steady presence of a tufted titmouse, the quality and composition of the seed matter immensely. Freshness and proper storage also play key roles in maintaining seed appeal and nutritional value. By choosing thoughtfully sourced mixes, you create a welcoming environment that encourages birds to return reliably, season after season.
