Is wild bird feed the new toilet paper ? TSC has none and has no idea when they will receive more. Had to buy overpriced BOSS at Home Depot.

I buy BOSS when it is on sale at Menards. I find the mixed seed gets too much wasted and spilled on the ground as the birds go digging for the BOSS that is mixed in.Is wild bird feed the new toilet paper ?

If you have a big box home repair store nearby they usually have some, and our grocery stores have been carrying it the last few years as well. We've been putting out one feeder of loose seed and a couple with seed cakes, and the seed cakes seem to last a lot longer and cut down on waste, although not eliminating it. Local cottontails appreciate the waste, but their numbers don't seem to be threatened whatsoever.Is wild bird feed the new toilet paper ? TSC has none and has no idea when they will receive more.

I can't speak for cardinals but many kinds of male song birds either build the nest or at least help in the construction phase.A lot of robins overwinter here especially on a mild winter like this. Right now there is what I am assuming is a migratory flock in my back yard eagerly searching for worms. Early this morning I was watching a male cardinal in a heavily trimmed magnolia tree close to the house. It almost looked as if he was looking for a nest site. That's something I had always assumed the female did.

Jealousy here.With the bottlebrush in full bloom decided today was a good day to get a couple hummingbird feeders out. With the warmer weather we’ve had I’d expect they’ll be here anytime.
