Painted Bunting Port Salerno 2025
How It All Started
I started feeding birds sunflower seeds, peanuts, and mixed wild bird seed, but the Painted Buntings didn't come.
Then I put out millet spray. Within a week, around 20 Painted Buntings appeared!
I'm a Florida native and had never seen one before. After retiring, these beautiful birds inspired me to do more.
At about $14 per pound for millet spray, I want to find better, more affordable food, improve feeding methods, and encourage towns to plant millet instead of grass where practical.
It started with one feeder. Now I want to get communities involved in helping Painted Buntings.
