Seed the Way:
Attract Goldfinches to Your Garden with These Must-Have Plants!
|
|
|
|
In gardens throughout Central Illinois, we've been seeing lots of charming visitors lately: goldfinches! These acrobatic, bright yellow birds are a delight to have in your garden. They're wonderfully easy to attract, and we've got just the right plants to make them feel right at home.
|
|
|
Goldfinches are unique in their nesting habits; they don't begin nesting until late June, July, or even September in some cases. Unlike most other bird species, they don't feed their babies insects; instead, they rely solely on seeds. This makes them perfect companions for your pollinator garden.
|
|
|
|
The ideal plants bear lots of seeds to keep the goldfinches fed. Here are some plants that will make your garden a goldfinch paradise:
|
|
A few additional notes:
It almost goes without saying, but you've got to allow your flowers to go to seed in order to attract these seed-eating birds. They also really appreciate a source of available water, like a fountain or a bird bath.
