A while ago we got a huge bag of sunflower seed hearts.  We started putting them in one of the feeders.  The birds (and squirrels) went nuts.  Easy eating!  They are nice because there are no shells left behind to clean up, no black oiled sunflower seed shell chemical to kill plants, and no sunflowers growing in the grass under the tree.

The hearts are, understandably, more expensive, but there is at least twice the actual food.

We picked up a second bag on our garden store shopping trip Saturday.

Despite the easy eating, some seeds must still make it to the ground.  The neighborhood bunny starts making the rounds about 8:00 each night.  He usually gets here around 10 pm.  Tonight we got an early visit.  I had to zoom and be stealthy to get this pic.
