Nyjer seed, often referred to as thistle seed, is an irresistible delicacy for finches and a multitude of other small, vibrant songbirds. Abundant in essential oils and proteins, Nyjer seed serves as an enchanting lure, particularly for Goldfinches during the summer when their plumage is at its most resplendent. Whether offered on its own or blended with other seeds, Nyjer's magnetic appeal extends to a diverse avian audience, including Juncos, Pine Siskins, Common Redpolls, Chickadees, Sparrows, and a delightful array of other feathered companions.
