Frequently Asked Questions
Pine Siskins are especially fond of nyjer seed and sunflower hearts. They also enjoy other small seeds found in quality finch blends. If you want to attract more siskins, keep your feeders filled with fresh seed and make sure there is enough space for several birds to feed at once.
Tube feeders and nyjer feeders work very well for Pine Siskins because they can easily cling to the small perches while picking out individual seeds. Mesh feeders are another good option because siskins can hold onto the sides while they feed. Place the feeder somewhere quiet where birds can easily see it from nearby trees.
Start with nyjer seed or sunflower hearts in a clean feeder and give the birds some time to find it. Pine Siskins often travel in groups, so once one group discovers a reliable food source, you may start seeing several birds visiting together. Keeping your feeder clean is especially important because siskins can gather in large numbers.
