Many types of seed-eating birds can frequent people’s feeders. Blue jays, sparrows, finches and doves are very common in most parts of the United States and Canada. Birds like bluebirds and doves, have smaller, weaker beaks that can handle only more tender seeds. Providing plenty of each kind of seed makes feeders more attractive to more than one or two species of birds. From the foods human feed wild birds, black oil sunflower seeds are preferred because they contain more fat. If sunflower seeds are offered without their shells, more bird species will come to eat at the feeder.
