Common Redpoll

The bird feeders are getting busier again with mated pairs of all kinds of birds returning for breeding and feeding their young but the redpolls stay year round. 
I have other feeders up but a great number of the birds prefer this one. Most of the birds that stay much prefer sunflower seeds to any other type of seed.  I have mixed seed in this feeder at the moment so they all just throw away what they don't want to get at the sunflower seeds.  The morning doves eat what the rest throw out so it isn't wasted.  The chipmunks don't mind either.
