Gifts for Bird Lovers
10 Things to Consider When Buying a Gift for Bird Lovers
1. Figure out what type of bird (or birds) they have
This should definitely be a major consideration. Every bird is different, and knowing specifically what breed of bird they have will help you a lot when finding a gift for a bird lover.
You would hate to get something for their bird that they can’t enjoy - so make sure you don’t make that mistake!
2. Safety first, always
As with shopping for any gift that is for a pet, you want to make sure that it is safe.
There are plenty of toys, treats, accessories and more that are developed specifically for birds, so make sure you go with those types of items if you decide to get something that their bird can enjoy and use.
It is definitely a great idea to get a bird lover a gift for their bird, just always make safety your top priority!
Think tech
There are a lot of tech items out there that can help pet owners while they are away!
Why not consider a camera that they can use to watch their birds while they aren’t at home?
This is great if the bird lover you are shopping for is typically gone during the day or travels a lot. Now they can check in on their birds any time they want!
4. The decor is a great idea
Especially if you are invited to a housewarming party, why not get some bird-themed decor?
There are so many options to consider, believe it or not. From pieces of artwork to sculptures, light fixtures, and even appliances, you can pretty much get a bird-themed anything!
5. Why not go personalized
If the person you are shopping for has birds, why not get either a portrait of the birds commissioned or something that features their names?
This could also be a piece of artwork or something like a piece of jewelry with their names or initials engraved on it.
6. Update their bird feeder
If the animal lover enjoys birds outdoors as much as their pets, consider updating their bird feeder (or getting them their first one if they don’t have one) so that they can watch all the birds in their backyard more easily.
Also, consider getting a hummingbird feeder so they can see hummingbirds as well!
7. Invest in some binoculars
For people who also really love bird watching, a nice set of binoculars makes for the perfect little thing!
This allows them to really get a good look at whatever birds they see either at home or out when they travel.
8. Educational materials are great for new owners
You don’t want to insult a long-time bird lover, but if you know someone who has just adopted a new bird, some reading material on how to take care or train them can make for the perfect gift!
You could also consider a book that specifically focuses on teaching birds to sing or talk. Who wouldn’t want to do that??
9. Clothing and jewelry
Birds have actually long been a popular inspiration for clothing or jewelry design.
From actual birds to just wings, there are a lot of beautiful pieces of clothing or jewelry out there that are perfect for the female bird lover in your life.
10. Go for the subscription box
Finally, if you simply can’t decide what to get, go with a subscription box!
There are plenty of bird/pet themed boxes out there, so you can easily select one that matches their interests.
They’ll get fun new items each and every month, and you don’t have to worry about a thing!
