Nyjer Seed for Birds

Nyjer seed, also known as niger seed, is a high-energy, oil-rich bird food that’s ideal for attracting Goldfinches, Siskins, and even the occasional Turtle Dove to your garden. These fine seeds are packed with essential nutrients, making them an excellent year-round food source for small, seed-loving birds.

Thanks to its exceptional nutritional value, Nyjer has become a favourite among bird enthusiasts and is even thought to have contributed to the increase in Goldfinch populations across the UK. A simple way to support local wildlife, and enjoy more colour and movement in your garden.

Due to their small size, we recommend using a specialist Nyjer feeder with narrow ports to minimise waste. For even better results, pair it with a feeder tray to catch stray seeds and make the most of every feed.
