If you want to attract the most birds with just one type of seed, use oil sunflower. It appeals to the most variety of birds, is the most durable in changing weather conditions and is efficient at providing energy to our birds. The only downside is the fallen waste from the hulls. Oil sunflower hulls are much smaller and degrade much easier than the larger, grey-striped sunflower variety that was used in bird feeding until the oil seed cultivar became widespread in the 1970’s.
