Food in the form of a Smakers treat, perfect for any time of the year. Birds need feeding not only in winter, but also at the beginning of spring, during the breeding season, or in urban areas with limited food sources. They need our help. Universal bird food is a blend of seeds and grains that birds love to eat. Sunflower seeds, both whole and hulled, are a delicacy for birds and provide energy. Small seeds from three types of millet and canary grass are ideal for seed-eaters such as sparrows, tree sparrows, greenfinches, jays, etc.
