Black Sunflower Seeds

Thin-skinned, tasty and packed with oil and protein, black sunflower seeds are a real, year-round alternative to peanuts at a significantly lower cost. They're easy to feed, too, either on the ground or from any type of feeder. The only drawback is the discarded husks, but even these have a benefit - they make great compost!
