Late Fall & Winter Seed Preferences

The simplicity of providing shelled sunflower seeds attracts birds like this Purple Finch and avoids the need to clean accumulated shells below feeders.
Jays are beautifully colored and they certainly have an interesting character that adds to the activity at a feeding station (photos by Paul Konrad).
Even the smallest seed-eating birds, like these American Goldfinches, find shelled sunflower seeds to be a preferred food.

Ultimately, the types of seeds you provide at your feeders will dictate what birds you will attract. Knowing this, experienced birders narrow the seeds they provide to seeds with the best food value, that will also attract the species of birds they prefer. It’s equally important to avoid seeds that attract unwanted birds that can overpower your feeding station. It’s natural to think the more variety the better, but some seeds can lead to problems with domineering birds, squirrels, and other rodents. Sometimes it takes a bit of personal research at your own feeding station, which can be part of the fun. Read more

Earlier this month, a wildlife technician in the Southwest Region headed out to do a cause-of-death investigation for a GPS-collared mule deer buck in the Owyhees. The investigation is part of an ongoing research project looking at various factors that affect buck survival, including season structures, hunt types, and how accessible a unit is to hunters.
