Do finches eat the entire nijer seed or just the shell? - Page 2

That's basically the reason why I was asking.

I'm wondering if the finches are just incredibly messy eaters, or are
these really the shells from the nijer seeds...

 



I see Juncos and Doves feeding from the ground under the feeder so the
finches apparently are dropping some.  I suppose it's inevitable with
such tiny seeds.  I've also seen sock-type feeders where the mesh is a
little too open and the seed falls out as the sock is jostled.

What's that got to do with the feeding habbits of finches?
