No better gift for a bird lover!
932717
Next to a flower, the only comparable ideal of beauty must be the sound, color, form, and taste of our finely-feathered friends.  I have always been a bird lover, certainly before the threat of bird flu, before the popularity of using owls as postal carriers in "Harry Potter", and probably even before the widespread popularity of KFC, and in my long experience, no one speaks with greater authority on birdal matters than the National Audubon Society.

But is one day really long enough to appreciate each bird as presented on the calendar, much less establish a meaningful relationship?  Yes!  By the feathered gods of ancient Sumer, yes!  I can recall from the 2005 calendar each and every bird that graced my cubicle throughout this passing year, and each day I awake with a smile on my face knowing that a new feathered friend is awaiting me at the Midwestern insurance company where I work.  With a helpful little profile accompanying each bird to break the ice of the first encounter, curiosity quickly leads to admiration, then fondness, then longing, then frustration, then betrayal, and then finally a very messy and violent break-up, so it is a good thing that a new bird is always around the corner on the next page.

Sometimes I wish I were a bird.  Not so I could fly, or sing, or perch, or lay eggs--or relieve myself while flying, singing, perching, or laying eggs--but so I could eat worms.  I eat worms anyway, but people consider it "gross" and "disgusting".  Nobody says those things when a bird does it.  I wish I were a bird.

I've seen a lot of bird calendars and this is by far my favorite. What better than a bird a day for every day of the year?!? Great photos! I love it!

This is a FABULOUS gift!  My "wine-loving" friends were absolutely thrilled to receive this umbrella.  I have no doubt that it will be a go-to gift again in the future!

I am a huge Swarovski collector especially of the birds. This piece is absolutely beautiful and the price was well worth it. Highly recommend if you are a collector or it would make a nice gift as well!

I purchased the book by Lars Jonsson "... Paintings from a Near Horizon" as a gift for my son-in-law, who is an avid bird watcher.  My wife scanned the book before we presented it, and found the contents very beautiful.  My son-in-law was silent, but obviously enthusiastic about the birds.  The book is both a work of art and a vivid presentation of birds.

Beautiful birds and a great idea for a gift. I like them too much so will probably reorder for a friend

One of my cat's favorite activities is bird watching and so we got him Nature's Hangout Window Bird Feeder with Removable Tray, Drain Holes and 3 Suction Cups, Large, Clear- possibly the best idea we've ever had. Since then all sorts of birdies would come to the window and chirp and my kitty even learned how to chirp back! We got him this toy during the winter months when the birdies fly south for winter and he misses his friends. The bird toy has the most excellent rendition of a real bird chirp that we have ever heard! It is a loud chirp that may be heard a couple of rooms away, but it always brings a smile to my face because I know my face is enjoying snuggling up to his bird toy and dreaming of the day when his birdie friends will come back for a visit!

I bought this for my husband's birthday and he absolutely ADORES it. He is constantly pointing out what birds are on our bird feeder. The only downside is that he has turned a tiny bit obsessed with birds. But I figure this is not such a bad habit for your hubby to have!

This feeder is beautiful!  The hummingbirds found it quickly and visit it regularly.  What else do you want?  =) . I am very happy with this purchase and would consider it a great idea for a gift!

I absolutely love this bird feeder!  The birds in my neighborhood are loving it too!  My first official bird I saw was a male cardinal!  I think they are passing the word around to their other friends.  I highly recommend this product.  It brightens my working days at home!

This Sibley birds calendar is simply amazing.  Each page includes a highly detailed rendering of a bird, along with facts about the bird and the bird's lifestyle.  The images are stunning, and the facts will engage children and adults alike.
A calendar like this is educational and enjoyable to look at.  I plan to have this one on my kitchen wall all year!
Birdlovers and nature lovers can't go wrong with this Sibley Birds calendar.

Beautiful calendar. My brother-in-law is a birdwatcher and I thought this would make a great Christmas gift. Looking forward to giving it to him on Christmas morning.

What a beautiful puzzle! I have been buying puzzles for my elderly mother for the last fifteen years.  She loves them and they are a fantastic hobby for an older person  My mother  loves song birds and Outset Media makes the most beautiful bird puzzles.  They are true to color and full of amazing details.  In fact, they are so gorgeous that we have framed several of them.  They are a lovely addition to my mother's room in the assisted living facility.  This one may find a home there too since it is perhaps my favorite.  With 2-day shipping free through my Prime account, this is as good as shopping gets.

Awesome puzzle for bird or raptor enthusiasts!  Name of the birds in Latin as well as other languages - nice, crisp illustrations.  Purchased for my son who is really into birds - he was thrilled with the information on the puzzle and can't wait to put it together!
