I'm not sure why you aren't attracting house finches - it could be a few things. It could be the type of feeder you are using or perhaps where you have the feeder located. They do like to have shelter and water very nearby. They are nomadic birds so perhaps they just haven't found your new home yet. In addition to sunflower seeds they also enjoy fruit, suet, and nectar. Canary seeds are their favorite. Good-luck, I hope you see them soon! Hi Tanya!

I'm near a lake in a less congested neighborhood and cannot seem to attract any of them here. What's up?
