Could you elaborate on the potential reasons why the goldfinches seem uninterested in consuming the nyjer seed? Could it be that the nyjer seed is not being offered in a suitable feeder, such as a sock or mesh feeder, which goldfinches prefer? Is the nyjer seed old or stale, reducing its appeal? Are there other food sources nearby that are more attractive to the goldfinches? Or, could there be a lack of awareness among the birds about the presence of the nyjer seed? Understanding these factors could help us determine why the goldfinches are not consuming the nyjer seed and take appropriate measures to address the issue.
