Is flaxseed and linseed the same thing?
Yes, linseed and flaxseed are the same thing. In the United Kingdom we alternate between flaxseed and linseed, where as in the US and Canada, both are referred to as flax. Flaxseed and linseed originate from the same plant and are essentially the same, but here in the UK we’re more likely to refer to the plant as linseed when using the seed for polish, paints, ink, etc. We will be more likely to use the term ‘flaxseed’ when it’s being used as a food.

Can all birds eat flaxseed?
Due to their small size, flax seeds can be eaten by a wide range of birds. Although flaxseeds have a hard coating, any bird that has a bill and digestive system adapted to seed eating should not have issues consuming flaxseed. Some birds that are known for enjoying flaxseed include finches, robins, and doves.
