Hello to everyone who loves feeding, watching and admiring all the beautiful creatures of nature.

From time to time, we will add some interesting information about birds, types of seed and other informative facts to make your visit more interesting. We hope this gives you just a little insight as to types of birds and where you are most likely to see them. We truly hope you enjoy the information.

Before we get to the interesting general information, I wanted to share with everyone a very recent testimonial from one of our customers that has recently hung a bird feeder she got from us. The pictures were sent to us by the customer and the story is so cute and interesting. Many of our customers have great stories to tell about bird watching and bird feeding we can't share them all...but we found this story to be very cute, so we wanted to share it.

Here's her pictures and cute story:

"I was looking at my bird feeder - watching this one bird eat
- when I noticed that there was another bird - patiently waiting for his
turn to eat. After awhile - the one bird got tired of waiting and started
doing fly- by's to get the other bird to leave! It was pretty funny! So
thanks to you and Steven - I have the finest bird eatery in Moorpark, Ca. - the
only one with a waiting list! Enjoy the pics! Chirp Chirp!"

House Finch

The attractive house finch is one of the more common and recognizable species throughout the United States. Originally a western species of semiarid environments, it was introduced in the east in the 1940s; it has now expanded its range and spread to virtually every state, as well as a multitude of habitats. It has become very common in suburban areas and is easily attracted in large numbers to seed feeders

American Robin

The quintessential early bird, American Robins are common sights on lawns across North America, where you often see them tugging earthworms out of the ground. Robins are popular birds for their warm orange breast, cheery song, and early appearance at the end of winter. Though theyre familiar town and city birds, American Robins are at home in wilder areas, too, including mountain forests and Alaskan wilderness.

• Habitat

  American Robins are common across the continent in gardens, parks, yards, golf courses, fields, pastures, tundra, as well as deciduous woodlands, pine forests, shrub-lands, and forests regenerating after fires or logging.

With its brilliant orange and black plumage, the Baltimore Oriole's arrival is eagerly awaited by birders each spring migration. Its preference for open areas with tall trees has made it a common inhabitant of parks and suburban areas.

This common, large songbird is familiar to many people, with its perky crest; blue, white, and black plumage; and noisy calls. Blue Jays are known for their intelligence and complex social systems with tight family bonds. Their fondness for acorns is credited with helping spread oak trees after the last glacial period.

• Blue Jays make a large variety of calls that carry long distances. Most calls produced while the jay is perched within a tree. Usually flies across open areas silently, especially during migration. Stuffs food items in throat pouch to cache elsewhere; when eating, holds a seed or nut in feet and pecks it open.

• Habitat

  Blue Jays are birds of forest edges. A favorite food is acorns, and they are often found near oaks, in forests, woodlots, towns, cities, parks.

American Goldfinch

This handsome little finch, the state bird of New Jersey, Iowa, and Washington, is welcome and common at feeders, where it takes primarily sunflower and nyjer. Goldfinches often flock with Pine Siskins and Common Redpolls. Spring males are brilliant yellow and shiny black with a bit of white. Females and all winter birds are more dull but identifiable by their conical bill; pointed, notched tail; wingbars; and lack of streaking. During molts they look bizarrely patchy.

• Behavior

  These are active and acrobatic little finches that cling to weeds and seed socks, and sometimes mill about in large numbers at feeders or on the ground beneath them. Goldfinches fly with a bouncy, undulating pattern and often call in flight, drawing attention to themselves.

• Habitat

  The goldfinchs main natural habitats are weedy fields and floodplains, where plants such as thistles and asters are common. Theyre also found in cultivated areas, roadsides, orchards, and backyards. American Goldfinches can be found at feeders any time of year, but most abundantly during winter.

Wild Bird Seed Information

Black Oil Sunflower Seed

Black Oil Sunflower Seed is the most important seed in any backyard bird feeding plan. Almost any bird that visits a bird feeder will readily eat black oil sunflower seeds, and studies have shown that, given a choice of seeds, more species of birds will choose black oil sunflower seeds over any other food that is offered. The birds think it's Chocolate Cake and Ice Cream!

Whole Shelled Peanuts

People who feed whole peanuts in a shell to birds often report that after a while of offering them, the jays start calling to each other the moment the peanuts are brought to the feeder. Actually, screaming would be a better description! Once the alert has gone out, the jays literally dive-bomb for their favorite treat, sometimes taking more than one at a time. They then fly to the nearest branch, hammer them open and devour them as quickly as possible so they can return for more.

Nyjer (R) and Thistle

Nyjer (R)and Thistle are all names used to identify a tiny,black birdseed cultivated in Asia and Africa that is high in calories and oil content, loved by finches and other wild birds, and has been used in the feeding of wild birds for more than 40 years. However, only one name is correct: Nyjer (R).

To differentiate between theimported niger oilseed used to feed wild birds and thistle - as well as to eliminate any possibility of offensively mispronouncing the word "niger" - the Wild Bird Feeding Industry trademarked the name Nyjer in 1998. Unfortunately, Nyjer seed is still referred to by many people who feed wild birds as well as by some in the industry who package and sell wild bird food and as both niger and thistle.
