I now have only purple/golden finches. At the other location I had a wide variety and would like to have the variety again. I would appreciate any suggestions that you may have. Also there are a number of blue birds in the area and I would love to attract them to a feeder. I had read in a local paper that they liked coconut and raisins, tried that but it did not work. Any suggestions on this? Thanks .
