Indigo and Painted Buntings adore white proso millet.

If you have never seen these amazingly beautiful birds in your backyard, then white proso millet should be high on your list of backyard seeds to try.

White proso millet is a major ingredient in many wild bird seed mixes, but it is also wonderful to offer to birds just by itself.

White proso millet is desirable to many species of birds but it is a hands-down favorite of some species, especially doves, juncos, native sparrows, towhees, quail and bobwhite.

Tanagers will devour white millet even though they are not generally considered to be attracted to seed. A 5 pound bag will expand the varieties of birds in your yard.
