"One of Life's Little Pleasures" became a business motto here at Paradise Bird Feed because our customers truly do get more than a little pleasure from attracting small birds to their backyards. And recording the enthusiastic response of finches and other agile little seed-eaters to the good things contained in our Seedsox® is a big part of the fun. We invite you to send us your pictures—and a few words to go with them, including your home town—and we will post them here, updating them frequently. Just e-mail them to us and we'll add them to our album of little pleasures... |

◄ Gina Gigli in Markleeville, California(high up in Alpine County) reports that local songbirds flock to her Seedsox® first thing in the morning and chirpily chow down all day long. Says Gina, "I guess the yellow fabric catches their attention and gives them something they can hang onto tightly—they need to get a good grip because sometimes there will be more than a dozen jostling for pecking rights!" |
Nancy Humphries of Gardnerville, Nevada, has a Seedsox® hanging right outside her kitchen window - "That's why I was able to get up so close!" she says. "I wanted to share this with you - I'm so glad Seedsox® are available once again." |

◄ With good friends like Leora Worthington, who needs to advertise? We were blown away by the Cornell bird lab before we saw that they had used this wonderful shot of one of our Seedsox® under a "finch blitz" to illustrate the web entry you see here. All kinds of bird-feeding efforts are equally praiseworthy, but some are more popular than others! Please click in the square for a closer look at some very busy birds...or go to the Cornell website. You'll find that the Bird Lab specifically recommends thistle "socks" as an effective and convenient way of controlling the spread of bird diseases. They can be easily be washed (in cold water, no detergent) and they are relatively inexpensive to replace when time and busy beaks wear them out. (Nyjer seed isn't actually from a thistle, by the way, but the misnomer has been in popular use for so long that even the birds might be confused if we try to change it now!). |
