Because of stiff fabric, it's a little hardto fill, but it doesn't absorb rain and dew so it doesn't discolor and the ground sunflower/niger seeds dont stick together in a moldy mess.
I now have beautiful Goldfinches. 2 Males, 2 females now. So pleased that my bird visitors have increased. It took about a week for them to finally decide the sock was worthy of their time, but they are sold on it, and come also to my standard seed feeder too. Loving the Nyjer sock. Wonderful. Thank you again for this help.
One of my favorite birds is the yellow finch and I wait to see them each spring. I love this sock feeder because it attracts them! The feed all day and night and the sock lasts all summer!
the socks are great. And the longer one was wonderful. Thanks so much. Appreciate all the updates on birding. Wonderful surprise. Thanks for everything. We have about 40 Gold Finches at our feeders.
Thistle (nyjer) socks are by far and away the BEST way to offer nyjer to Goldfinches and other species that LOVE to dine on it !!! This is because the sock perfectly mimics the way they feed in the wild. Extracting thistle from a sock is the same as a Goldfinch sitting atop a thistle plant and picking out the seeds. And when given a choice nyjer eating species will choose to eat from a sock over all other feeders every single time because in the end IT'S THE MOST NATURAL WAY FOR THEM TO EAT!!!!!!!!!!
