I have a bag of safflower seeds no one will eat. I guess I need to offer
them up to the squirrels and chipmunks.

I know that most times safflower seeds are sold as something squirrels won't
eat. Think again! I put some out in a ground feeder once, and the only thing
that ate them WAS the squirrels!

well, apparently, so is almost every bird in my forest... each of the
feeders is cleaned out in about 10 days when filled with premium sunflower
chips, with barely a bit on the ground not gobbled by the ground feeders,
and yet in over 7 days of safflowery goodness, the only bird that seemed to
like them was one huge purple finch male.
