Good Morning –

Wondering if anyone is a bird seed expert that can help me with a question I have regarding Nyjer seed? I have a bag of Nyjer seed that is approx. 1 year old that I just put out but have not been getting much activity from the gold finches. Initially I had it located under an Aspen tree by a multi-seed feeder. After not much activity, I relocated it across the yard next to a large columnar pine with no increased activity. Is it the seed? I have only seen a few gold finches this year compared to years past so maybe that’s the issue. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
