Seed Preferences Charts

Different bird species are attracted by different food types as well as specific feeders placed in varied locations in your yard. For the best results with desired species we'll help you carefully select feeders and foods to match your feeding locations. We highly recommend contacting your nearest Wild Bird Center to develop a solution customized for you.

Please consult our Eastern Regional Feeding Preferences chart, Western Regional Feeding Preferences chart or the knowledgeable staff at your local store for specific information and informed recommendations about the best strategies for feeding wild birds in your area.
