Feeding Preferences
Attract the greatest variety of birds to your backyard!
At Wild Birds Unlimited we want to help you get the most enjoyment
out of your backyard birds. Our Certified Birdfeeding Specialists can
help you choose the right seed – and the right feeder – for the birds
you are trying to attract. |

 Some birds like to feed on the ground.
Most ground-feeding birds prefer millet and other seeds such as
sunflower. Use a tray feeder, such as the Wild Birds Unlimited
Ground-Feeding Tray and our Select Blend or No-Mess Blend
Some birds like to feed at elevated feeders.
 Typically these birds prefer black oil and striped sunflower seeds,
safflower and sunflower chips. Fill a Wild Birds Unlimited Seed Tube feeder
or choose a hopper from our exclusive Signature Series or Fundamentals line
of feeders. We recommend using our Supreme Blend or Choice Blend.
Some birds like to eat at an elevated feeder as well as on the ground.
Our exclusive line of Classic birdfeeders is designed to feed birds at
the feeder and on the ground. The patented design of these feeders – the
Classic, Classic Too, Classic Mini and Classic Double Decker – is perfect
for feeding a blend that accommodates both elevated and ground feeding.
Birds that enjoy eating at the feeder will eat the larger seeds, such as
sunflower and safflower and those that enjoy eating at the ground level will
eat the millet that falls to the ground. We recommend using this our Deluxe
Blend.
