Ah, what a delightful sight to see birds using their beaks to crack and crush seeds. It's nature's way of showing us their unique adaptations for survival. Just like a painter carefully choosing their brush, these birds have evolved to use their beaks as a tool to access the nutritious seeds inside. It's a beautiful dance of harmony between the bird and its environment.
Herons primarily use their beaks for catching fish, amphibians, and small invertebrates rather than crushing seeds. Their beaks are long and pointed, designed for spearing prey rather than grinding or crushing. While they might occasionally ingest seeds incidentally, they are not equipped to effectively crush them as some other birds are. Thus, herons are not considered seed-crushing birds.

Birds such as goldfinches, sparrows, and finches are known to eat zinnia seeds. These small birds are attracted to the seeds found in zinnia flower heads and may feed on them in gardens or natural areas.
To crush fennel seeds effectively, use a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder to grind them into a fine powder. This will release the flavor and aroma of the seeds for use in cooking or baking.
