Theme:  Feeding Nuts to Birds

417_med-peanut-silo.jpgI keep one tube bird feeder full of unshelled peanuts which draws woodpeckers, chickadees, finches, nuthatches, etc. I decided to experiment with other nuts to see what birds would eat. So far, they are showing no interest in walnuts, almonds or cashews. Our peanut feeder is designed only for clinging birds to keep the jays from dominating this tube bird feeder so my experiment is only testing a few species. However, peanuts are cheap and seem to be the most popular, so that’s what I will stick with.
