I've been using a finch mic that included thistle and other small seeds. I previously had only finch feeders so only small birds could feed, although woodpeckers showed up now and then. I now added a bigger feeder and filled it with a wild bird mix that includes sunflower seeds, but my usual crowd of small birds is still predominant. I expect others will arrive in time. It's been up only three dsys. I added the suet cage with a block of duet that includes some peanuts at the same time. The Titmouse went for that. The sparrows and chickadees like it as well. I expect woodpeckers will turn up. They dominate the suet feeders at the nature centers.
