Morning Song014203 1022526 Year-Round Wild Bird Food, 40-Pound, 40 lb, Brown/A

The birds love it. I mix black sunflower seeds with it.

40lb for a fair price would save on ordering otherwise all good

The sky is falling worry warts are out. "Poison in the bird seed".. they cry. Stop and think about it. If this was the case and it was at one time, would Amazon continue to keep selling it? Could they afford to do that? According to what I've read, this (and yes it was awful) practice was halted in 2008.I've been feeding this seed - I just ordered another 40 pounds on prime - for some time and compared to Kaytee, Warners and a few super market specials, the birds seem to prefer this way above all others. I barely get in the house before the feeders are 'attacked'. Yes, it's like they were just sitting and waiting for me to fill it up. It's a big variety I have here in south eastern Wisconsin too. Finches, chickadees, cardinals, jays, juncos loads of woodpeckers etc. etc.As an aside, there are loads of squirrels around my wooded lot. They do not hit the feeders. I load the seed with the cheapest brand of cayenne pepper I can find. Really layer it up in the bucket I carry the seed in. Once a squirrel has found the hot stuff, it doesn't come back and the word seems to be passed on to the rest of the gang. Even this year's youngsters seem to get the message. They do clean up around the ground under the feeders though, so they still get a treat, just a second hand one.Oh yeah, I haven't seen any dead birds around since I've been feeding this feed. It's a good buy, especially if you have prime, and I'll continue to serve it at our feeders as long as I can get it.

Among the low-end large-bag options I have tried from Amazon, this has been my favorite.

Looks like a nice mix of seed. The birds go crazy over it so I will continue buying it!

This item contained lots of filler. I found large pieces of wood in my bag

Squirrels also love it. I'm hoping to find something less attractive to them. This costs way too much to let the rodents empty the feeders every day.

Not the very best quality, but considering I paid less than $20 for a 50lb bag, and the birds are lining up to eat this, I feel very good about this purchase. Lots of native sparrows, cardinals, titmice, chickadees, blue jays, nuthatches, mourning doves, flickers and even woodpeckers, not to leave out English sparrows, all come and eat this seed, so that's a very good variety. There is quite a bit of corn and those round red seeds, but a fair amount of black oil sunflower seeds too. The oddest thing is I purchased this bag of Morning Song bird seeds, weighing 50 pounds and at the same time I ordered a 40lb bag of Morning Song black oil sunflower seeds, yet only this product was delivered, I never received the sunflower seeds and Amazon marked them as undeliverable. I sure can't understand that and have not received a proper response as to why. But overall I am very happy with this bird seed especially considering the price, free shipping and the variety of birds it is attracting. Can't beat that. I did end up buying a 40lb bag of sunflower seeds but that was at a brick and mortar tractor and feed store for $25.
