Hi Shirley,
There is a nice simple answer here, and that is that blue, true
blue, is a signal for poison in nature. Purple is often ok but there
are no natural foods that are blue.
I think the idea for this project is great!

Dear Shirley Cook,
I'm doing a project about birds vision,particularly their chose of
colours .I conducted an experiment to see which colour bird seeds
they will respond to.I found that most neutral ,red then yellow and
green but the least preferred one was blue.When I tried to search
why blue , i could not find enough info.If you know anything about
the colour chose of birds could you please share with me.I also
try to contact with Mr. Steven from UNE bird scientist,I was at
bird watching once with him, if you know his contact details could
you please write to me,he might help to explain why birds not like
blue or they don't prefer.
Many thanks.
