Default Wild Bird seed what do you use?

I find mine seem to prefer the sunflower seed whole rather than
dehulled, they seem to enjoy removing the shell. That said it's pretty
quiet of late anyhow.

How do you find your seed mixes?

I'm also looking for decent bulk supplies say 20/25kg at a time. Any
recommendations? thnx


We have tried quite a lot and found Mayfields Premium Seed to be the best at
attracting a variety of the smaller birds. Most other seed seems to contain
enormous amounts of corn which is a good way to attract pigeons.
