Providing the Best Bird Feed

When it comes to attracting a variety of wild birds, the quality of bird feed plays a crucial role. Our extensive selection includes a wide range of seed mixes, suet, and mealworms, all packed with essential nutrients that birds need to thrive. Whether you're feeding finches, chickadees, cardinals, or blue jays, we have the perfect feed for every species.

Our seed mixes are specially formulated to attract a diverse range of bird species. From sunflower seeds to millet and nyjer seeds, our blends are carefully crafted to provide a balanced diet for wild birds. We source only the highest quality seeds to ensure optimal nutrition for your feathered visitors.

Delicious Suet Treats

Suet is a great source of energy for birds, especially during colder months. Our suet cakes are made from premium ingredients, enriched with berries, insects, and nuts to provide a tasty and nutritious treat. Hang them in a suet feeder and watch as woodpeckers, nuthatches, and other suet-loving birds flock to your yard.

Bird baths are essential for providing birds with clean drinking water and a place to bathe. Our selection of bird baths offers a variety of designs, materials, and sizes to suit your preferences. With a bird bath in your garden, you can enjoy the sight of birds splashing and preening while ensuring they stay hydrated.

Expert Tips for Birdwatching

As avid birdwatchers ourselves, we want to help you make the most of your bird-friendly garden. Here are some expert tips to enhance your birdwatching experience:

1. Create a Variety of Feeding Stations

Set up different types of feeders and offer various feed options to attract a wide range of bird species. This diversity will increase the likelihood of different birds visiting your garden.

2. Provide Sheltered Areas

Place feeders and birdhouses near trees or shrubs to create natural sheltered areas. Birds will appreciate the additional protection, especially during harsh weather conditions.

3. Keep it Clean

Regularly clean bird feeders and bird baths to prevent the spread of diseases. Empty and refill feeders with fresh bird feed to maintain the health and well-being of visiting birds.

4. Offer a Constant Water Source

Ensure a constant supply of clean, fresh water in your bird baths. Birds will be attracted to the sound of moving water, so consider adding a small fountain or dripper to your bird bath.

5. Plant Native Trees and Flowers

Create a natural habitat for birds by planting native trees, shrubs, and flowers. Native plants provide food sources, nesting materials, and shelter for local bird species.

6. Provide Year-Round Food

Keep bird feeders stocked throughout the year to support resident and migrating birds. Different bird species have different feeding habits and preferences, so offering a variety of food options ensures a thriving bird population in your garden.

By following these tips and providing high-quality bird feed and supplies from Allen Sterling & Lothrop, you can transform your garden into a haven for wild birds. Enjoy the beauty and wonder of nature right in your own backyard!
