Songbird Gifts

Attracting Songbirds

Perhaps some of the best gifts would be bird feeders, birdbaths and birdhouses. These houses and feeders will attract these feathered singers and provide hours of listening pleasure. Birdbaths provide both decoration and a gathering place for these songsters. Cages can also be purchased for some of these feeders to protect them from squirrels and other predators. Specialized feeders that attract only a single species may also be of interest, and don't forget nesting materials.

In addition to listening to their cheerful songs, your bird lover will appreciate a gift of binoculars to identify his favorites and watch their antics. Bird identification books will be appreciated as will birdhouse cameras. Audio tapes and CDs of bird songs will help identify their calls. Wall posters will not only provide room decoration but will also give identifying characteristics. Small pocket guides that can be carried easily will also make good gifts.

The true songbird enthusiast will appreciate wall hangings and ceramic representations of area songbirds. Distinctive table lamps will be a welcome addition to the bird lover's dwelling. Ceramic figurines of these songbirds will provide color to any room. Games featuring songbirds will provide hours of family fun. There are also alarm clocks that use bird calls to rouse a person and an assortment of coasters and refrigerator magnets that highlight these songsters.

Songbird-themed T-shirts and sweatshirt will definitely delight the enthusiast as will coffee mugs, coasters and refrigerator magnets. Canvas totes covered with colorful songbirds will carry things in style, and canvas shoes sprinkled with songbirds are sure to catch attention. Key chains are useful items as are songbird notes and stationery. You can even give a gift of songbird stamps to complete the possibilities.
