Woodpecker Favorite (3054) is the gold standard for attracting timber-dwelling birds to your Great Lakes sanctuary. This isn't your typical grocery store mix; it is a high-octane, "no-waste" blend consisting entirely of edible meats. Because there are no shells, there is zero cleanup required under your feeders, making it perfect for patios and decks.

Packed with energy-dense peanuts, sunflower hearts, and pepitas (pumpkin seeds), this blend is specifically formulated to satisfy the high-calorie requirements of Michigan's year-round woodpecker population. Whether they are feeding hungry nestlings in June or trying to stay warm during a January lake-effect snowstorm, this mix provides the essential fats they need.

Why You’ll Love It

• 100% Edible / No-Mess: Every single bit is eaten. You won't find a pile of hulls rotting on your lawn or attracting rodents.

• Premium Nut Concentration: High in shelled peanuts—the #1 attractant for Northern Flickers and Red-bellied Woodpeckers.

• Versatile Feeding: Can be used in tray feeders, hopper feeders, or large-mesh nut feeders.

• Multi-Bird Appeal: While designed for woodpeckers, you’ll also see a surge in visits from Nuthatches, Chickadees, and Blue Jays.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• The "No-Waste" Advantage: Since there are no shells, this is the perfect food to use near your house or over a garden bed. It keeps your Michigan "curb appeal" high while keeping the birds happy.

• Winter Protein: In Michigan, winter survival is a game of calories. This high-fat mix is a life-saver for birds when natural insects are dormant.

• Feeder Choice: Use a feeder with a wide tray or a "tail prop" (a long piece of wood below the feeding port) to help larger woodpeckers like the Pileated feel stable while they eat.

• Tail-Prop Feeder: Because this is a larger, denser cake, it pairs perfectly with a "tail-prop" style feeder. The extra support allows larger woodpeckers to feed comfortably and stay longer.

• Strategic Location: Place your feeder near mature trees or the edge of a wooded area. Woodpeckers are much more likely to visit feeders that feel integrated into their natural environment.

• Year-Round Reliability: Since many woodpeckers are year-round residents in the Great Lakes region, keeping this high-protein source available during the winter is a key way to help them maintain body condition.

The IDEAL Woodpecker Seed Cake (01480) is a nutrient-rich, compressed feeding block formulated to meet the high energy requirements of woodpeckers and other woodland birds. By focusing on high-protein nuts and oil-rich seeds, this cake mimics the natural diet these birds would find while foraging on trees, providing a convenient and reliable food source in your own backyard.

Unlike standard seed mixes, this cake is designed with larger pieces of nuts and seeds that woodpeckers prefer. The compressed 2lb block is easy to use, mess-free, and stays firmly in place within a standard suet or seed cake cage, allowing birds to feed comfortably in their natural clinging position.

Why You’ll Love It

• Woodpecker Targeted: The specific blend of nuts and seeds is highly attractive to Downy, Hairy, Red-bellied, and Pileated Woodpeckers.

• Nutrient-Dense: Rich in fats and protein to support the high energy demands of active, climbing birds throughout the seasons.

• Low-Mess / No-Waste: Compressed ingredients ensure that birds eat every bit of the cake, leaving minimal debris on the ground beneath your feeder.

• Long-Lasting: The dense, 2lb block is slow-consuming, offering a great value and requiring fewer trips to the feeder to refill.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Tail-Prop Support: To maximize woodpecker activity, use a feeder with an extended board at the bottom. Woodpeckers use their tails for balance, and this support makes it much easier for them to feed for longer periods.

• Strategic Placement: Hang this cake near trees or wooded areas of your yard. Woodpeckers feel most secure when there is natural cover nearby.

• Year-Round Usage: Woodpeckers are non-migratory in many parts of the country; keeping this high-protein source available throughout the winter is a great way to support them during the coldest months.

The Woodpecker Small Seed Cylinder (9869) is a premium, compressed food source designed specifically for the high-metabolic needs of Michigan’s cavity-nesting birds. By blending heartier ingredients like pecans, walnuts, and peanuts with black oil sunflower seeds, this cylinder provides the dense fats and proteins that woodpeckers crave, especially during the nesting season and the lean winter months.

Unlike loose seed, the cylinder format requires birds to spend more time at the feeder, giving you better opportunities for observation and photography. It’s a "no-mess" solution—the compressed nature of the cylinder means less seed ends up on the ground, which helps deter unwanted visitors like mice or squirrels from scavenging under your station.

Why You’ll Love It

• Mess-Free Feeding: Compressed into a solid form to prevent "sorting" and waste; everything in the cylinder is edible.

• Long-Lasting: A single 27oz cylinder lasts significantly longer than a standard suet cake, providing a consistent food source for your backyard residents.

• Multi-Species Appeal: While designed for Woodpeckers, it is also a favorite for Chickadees, Nuthatches, and Tufted Titmice.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Feeder Compatibility: This cylinder (SKU: 9869) is best used with a dedicated cylinder feeder or a spike-style feeder. For added protection from Michigan’s sudden rain or snow, use a feeder with a weather guard/roof.

• The "Winter Lifeline": During a Michigan "Polar Vortex," birds lose significant body weight overnight. Hanging one of these high-fat cylinders provides an immediate, high-calorie energy boost at dawn.

• Woodpecker Variety: In the Great Lakes region, this blend is particularly effective at attracting the Red-headed Woodpecker and Northern Flicker, in addition to the common Downy and Hairy varieties.
