Sunflower

$10.99

Black oil sunflower seed is the favorite of most local species. It is the seed that will attract the greatest variety of birds. Like its name suggests, it is rich in oil, thus providing birds with much needed calories. The main disadvantage of sunflower seed is the accumulation of uneaten shells under the feeder. Sunflower has a longer shelf life due to its shell.
