Lyric Fruit & Nut High Energy Mix Wild Bird Food

I feed a variety of wild birds. This food sounded promising. But when it arrived the pieces of nuts were huge. Whole cashews, whole peanuts. Far to large to feed the smaller birds. The sunflower seeds were tiny. Just a big disappointment. Ended up having to place nuts in food processor. Reminded me of nuts you would find in a bowl at a party.

I purchase this to mix in with my no waste bird seed with the hopes it would add more fruit and different nuts. When I read the on line description it didn’t mention peanuts and sunflower as the main ingredients. When it came I was disappointed to see it is mainly peanuts and sunflower seed. For the price I was expecting a different blend. For the price I should of just bought the dried fruit and nuts alone to add to my no waste blend and get a better blend. If you are looking for a woodpecker, blue jay, and nuthatches blend this would be good but not a lot of mixed fruit in it.

I bought this Lyric Fruit and Nut High Energy Mix bird food and the birds absolutely love it. It is very pleasing to the Titmice, Woodpeckers and the Cardinals. I also put it down for the Chipmunk that lives near my house and she also loves it. I am very pleased with this product, so much so that I have already reordered a 20lb bag.

I love Lyric brand bird food. It is clean, no fillers, and Chewy offers such a great price and quick delivery. Often I will sneak a cupful into the deer feed and they seem to enjoy it. This seed brings in Pileated Woodpeckers, Red-headed Woodpeckers, Bluejays, Squirrels, Crows, and an assortment of birds to our feeders.....love feeding my wonderful clan of birds in Northern Minnesota the best food around. Thanks!

This product was very disappointing. Our birds were unable to eat any of it because it’s too big. And it’s primarily whole peanuts and corn. We sent it back very disappointing

Thought 20 lbs of this Lyric seed was a little cheaper than the Wild Delight 20 lb bag of nut and Berry - so I thought I would try it. The pieces in this seed mix are much larger and it attracts squirrels, bluejays, mockingbirds, red bellied woodpeckers etc. I feed this seed on the ground, so that the smaller birds have a chance to feed at a platform feeder. The smaller birds at the platform feeder enjoy Lyric golden safflower seed and the Wild Delight nuts and berry mix of smaller size seeds. I went through a 20 lb of Lyric fruit and nut much faster than a 20 lb bag of Wild Delight nut and berry. I prefer the Wild Delight for smaller birds.

I love the mix. I've purchased it before. But the last 2 times it has had plastic strings and flakes in there. Once I'm willing to write off as an accidental machine oopsie. Twice, a month apart, means there are mechanical issues that need to be corrected. I've written them, but I felt it prudent to warn future customers about this problem.

This is a great mix (reviewing my first bag)... Many kinds of nuts, and seeds... and yes, there is some corn. NOTE: This mix is NOT a no waste seed mix as there are some black oil seeds in this mix. I have not seen any nut shells yet, only the black oil seed shells.The birds (winter in the minnesota - chickadees, white and red breasted nuthatches, juncos, pine siskin, redpolls, cardinals, blue jays, red-bellied woodpeckers, downy and hairy woodpeckers and so on...) LOVE this mix, as do the squirrels... I'm sure the pileated woodpeckers would also enjoy this mix if we placed it in a different area for them. Thus far this has been a great mix for our birds. --- To note: After a few weeks of This is a great mix (reviewing my first bag)... Many kinds of nuts, and seeds... and yes, there is some corn.

I really think this product is exceptional. The nuts look like they are better quality than what are sold for humans. I mix it with sunflower seeds. The two bags I bought had a bit more peanuts than usual but still a very good product.

Living in the Midwest and having snow on the ground for 5 or 6 months out of a year, I was happy to see the birds that stick around for the winter love this bird food. I’m happy to know they can come to my feeders and have food they love and will give them energy to keep them warm during our winter months.
