Experience the magic of the natural world from the comfort of your home when you invest in the right supplies for your bird feeder, including essential bird feed or hummingbird nectar for your local bird population. At Ace, we offer an extensive selection of bird food designed to attract specific types of birds. By selecting the right type of seed and food for the birds in your area, you will be able to spend more time observing and enjoying them.

Bird feed is available in many varieties, including seed, suet and nectar, keep reading to find out how to determine what kind of bird feed is right for your backyard bird population.

Types of Bird Seed

You can use a variety of bird seed to attract different species of birds to your feeder. Certain seeds may also be more appropriate for specific regions and seasons. For example, black oil sunflower seed is ideal for colder climates and winter months due to the high oil content that provides warmth and energy to birds.

You may opt to choose a common wild bird seed that will feed a wide variety of your local bird population or a more specific seed or nectar for one species of bird. Ace stocks bird seed varieties to cater to bluebirds, cardinals and chickadees, as well as orioles and woodpeckers.

When Should I Buy Suet for Birds?

Suet, a unique bird feed that includes beef fat, is most often available in a cake form. It’s commonly fed to birds within a special feeder that is essentially a wire cage-like holder for the suet cake. Suet is a high-energy bird food due to its fatty content and is especially popular among insect-eating birds. It often contains various grains, nuts, fruit and even flavored pellets.

What Do I Need to Feed Hummingbirds?

Hummingbirds are especially fond of nectar. Nectar is very sweet and contains the sugar necessary to keep these high energy birds going. You will find nectar in both liquid and ready-to-mix powder concentrate forms. It’s also important to regularly change out your nectar because it’s susceptible to bacteria and spoiling (which will harm the hummingbirds).

Many people prefer to buy liquid nectar because it’s ready for the hummingbirds to feed on right away. However, you can select nectar concentrate if you don’t mind taking the time to dilute the nectar to the proper proportions.

Benefits of Attracting Birds to Your Yard

Attracting birds to your yard comes with a vast range of benefits, including:

  • Weed control: Many bird species eat large quantities of weed seeds that would otherwise make their way into your flower beds or garden.
  • Pollination: Both hummingbirds and orioles act as magnificent pollinators, which means more flowers will bloom and thrive in your yard.
  • Pest control: Birds keep the local pest population under control, reducing the need for insecticides.

Do You Need Squirrel Food Too?

If squirrels end up eating most of your bird food, try a squirrel-proof bird feeder or high quality squirrel feed for your four-legged backyard friends. Seeds, nuts and dried corn kernels are the main ingredients in common squirrel foods and help provide the necessary calories and fat to see your local squirrels through the winter.
