Why Chia Seeds Are The Perfect Addition To Your Bird Feeder
By KOURTNEY BORMAN
If you want to treat the birds visiting your garden with more than a generic birdseed, consider adding chia seeds in your bird feeder, as the tiny seeds pack a number of benefits.
Rich in omega-3, protein, and fiber, chia seeds provide the birds with plenty of nutritions to maintain their energy levels, especially during harsh weather or breeding seasons.
These tasty yet healthy seeds also help birds' heart health, digestion, energy levels, and bone strength. They are also easy to seamlessly mix with other types of bird feeds.
Chia seeds are also lightweight and small, making them easy for birds of all sizes to eat. This means you'll likely see a wider variety of birds visiting your feeder.
