I have 2 bird feeders but I do not put mixed feed in my feeders as that is the feed that attracts black birds and all types of birds. I only use safflower seed and it is expensive and difficult to find but the only birds that will eat it are cardinals and morning doves but since morning doves are ground eaters they clean up anything that has dropped. All other species find the seed bitter so once in awhile you may see another specie but they will not stay around. I would love all types of birds but I don't want the black birds so I have many, many cardinals daily...babies and all...I love them.
