Ran across an interesting article published in Newsweek Magazine (Nov ’07) explaining the rising cost in bird feed. There was also a good point made by Laura Erickson - don’t buy the cheap stuff! Not only do the cheap bird mixes contain “fillers”, but in my own experiences, they tend to attract birds that you may not care to have around; such as, European Starlings, House Sparrows and even pigeons.
