Yes. Birds of Prey will not eat seeds, but most vegetable-eating avians will eat sunflower seeds.

Further information:

Whilst many species of birds eat sunflower seeds, they do not eat tend to eat the shells, or husks. Parrots, which are the most common consumers of sunflower seeds, have specially shaped beaks to enable them to remove the husks quickly and skilfully. The husks cannot be digested.

Yes, my bird enjoys eating the shells of sunflower seeds. As long as they don't have salt on them though
