Frequently Asked Questions
Red Winged Blackbirds eat seeds, grains, insects, and other foods they find around wetlands and open areas. At backyard feeders, they may enjoy sunflower seeds, millet, and quality mixed seed blends. Offering food on a platform or larger feeder gives them enough space to feed comfortably.
Platform feeders and hopper feeders are good choices because they give Red Winged Blackbirds plenty of room to perch. They are larger than many common feeder birds, so a strong feeder with a wide feeding area can work better than a small tube feeder. Placing the feeder in an open area can also make it easier for them to spot.
Try offering sunflower seeds or a quality seed blend in a strong platform or hopper feeder. Red Winged Blackbirds are often more comfortable around yards with open spaces, nearby shrubs, or wet areas. If you already see them around your neighbourhood, keeping a reliable food source available can encourage them to visit your feeder.
