Our SuperClean Niger Seed is a thing of beauty to Goldfinches and Siskins.  

We've been supplying Niger Seed since the 1930s when its unique tonic properties were well renowned within the bird-keeping world and were one of the first companies to pioneer feeding Niger Seed to wild birds. It's a fine, free-flowing oil-rich seed that needs to be fed from a special Niger feeder. We have a range of feeders at our Bird Food Centre in Lincolnshire and we often feed over 100 Goldfinches per day, it's quite a sight - flashes of gold and red swooping in daily to feed on this tiny, oil-rich seed.

Goldfinches are now found in almost five times as many gardens as they were sixteen years ago (BTO Research 2012) which means there's a good chance of you seeing one of them in your garden (if you haven't already) if you put out the right bird food. To say they're in around 33% of UK gardens (RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch, 2012 Results) they're ranked seventh in average bird count per garden, which is easily explained as they are gregarious and feed happily together and often in large numbers - a "charm".

Please Note: Our products are manufactured in a facility that handles nuts and may contain traces of nuts.
