Seeds and More
I prefer getting individual seed types and mixing them in the feeders myself. I find I have a lot less waste and get more for my money this way.
Easily the most popular seed at my feeders! Loved by all the different birds who visit!

I like using this to top off the seeds in my platform feeder since they are great protein!
National Audubon Society Mealworms Mealworms Bird seed 6 Ounce(s)
A good variety pack of my favorite suet. I really love that these are easy to open, some suit packs and so hard to get open during the winter with mittens on, but I’ve never had issues with this brand.
