Sunflower seeds also took a great leap in price this winter.

I find it strange that many folks keep spending $$$ on nyjer when the
siskins and goldfinches here have been happily eating black oil sunflower
all winter and spring.  I've done nothing to the sunflower seeds to help
them (crushing, blendering, etc.), they appear to be fully capable of
opening them on their own.
