Unique Bird Feeders for Wildlife Lovers
Looking for gifts for backyard bird watchers? Try some unique and interesting bird feeders
If you browse your local department stores, there are a good number of bird feeders -- and they'll probably all look more or less the same. Sure, you might turn up one or two unique or unusual items, but generally speaking bird feeders tend to be an uninspired lot.
Which is why you shop online, of course! These bird feeders go far beyond the ordinary and turn a simple gift into a WOW moment.
1. Food on a Wire
Unlike traditional bird feeders, this little number unobtrusively wraps around branches, trees, or even balconies. It's a very simple, almost minimalist design: two heavy cones to hold the thing in place and a wire that holds the food. If you don't like your backyard dominated by bird feeders but still want to leave out some snacks for your feathered friends, this is the perfect option.
2. Heath Songview In-House Window Feeder
This is a really unique concept: a bird feeder that sits on your window and contains a one-way mirror. In other words, you can get up close and watch the birds without them realizing you're there and taking off. Perfect for hardcore bird watchers who don't like to leave the comfort of their living rooms!
3. Avant Garden Sandy Beach Hummingbird Feeder
Most bird feeders attract specific types of birds (and a few pesky squirrels and magpies to boot). This one calls to hummingbirds, and it does it while brightening up the yard with an umbrella shaped beach themed novelty.
Whether you're dealing with a hardcore bird watcher or a friend with a new backyard, bird feeders make perfect gifts for any summer occasion. Not only do you give a unique and interesting present, you also give the joy of watching feasting feathers all year long. Even the most non outdoorsy person around will enjoy these bird feeders.
