Awesome place to find anything bird related you might need! Large, varied selection with great options. You couldn't ask for a better bird store or better staff. I read some of the reviews too, and i love that every review has been replied to. It's very wholesome and sweet and the responses are informational, polite, and very appreciated (to me, at least). I love this store, and I love birds so much. This store is the reason I got into bird watching, and its helped me become closer to my grandfather who loves to observe the birds in the area with me. We have so much fun bonding together over the birds we see in his yard. ♥️

Very helpful and knowledgable staff. Be careful, this place and the hobby of feeding birds can become very addicting. While the items they carry are expensive, they are the best in my opinion and are typically under a pretty solid warranty. One of their clear dinner bell's broke when a squirrel jumped on it and they replaced the broken part no questions asked.

Yes. We did a quiet reopening this past Monday. Masks are required of course. 5 patrons is the maximum allowance so some visitors may need to wait outside wow we complete transactions.
Try offering them their own feeding station with their favorite foods like corn or nuts. Use a squirrel-proof bird feeder, like the Eliminator. Place a baffle on your feeder pole. Use dome baffles above bird feeders. Try an OnGuard™ wire mesh cage around your existing feeders to keep squirrels from reaching the food. Fill your bird feeders with safflower seeds, many songbirds will eat safflower, but squirrels typically won't.
Here are a few options: Set up a window feeder, it will keep the birds safe from striking the window and provide close views of them feeding. If your feeding station is in the direct vicinity of a window, move it to within three feet of the window. Install window screens. Decals and stained-glass decorations are moderately successful. Hanging vertical exterior tape stripes across the window at 4 inches (10 cm) intervals.
After installing a new feeder it can take a day or a number of weeks before the birds will readily take to it even if it replaces an existing feeder. Patience is key when birds are getting used to a new feeder. Birds generally find their food by sight. Placing your feeder where it will be visible to them should decrease the time it takes for birds to start feeding. Sprinkling some food on the ground or on top of the feeder can help, too.
The best thing to do if you find a baby bird is to leave it alone. If the bird appears as though it has fallen from a nest, an attempt to locate the nest can be made, and the bird can be carefully returned. If the bird has feathers, it may be a fledged bird and a parent bird is probably close by. It is best to watch the bird from a distance to see if a parent returns after an hour or so before determining that the bird needs human help.
We don't sell birds. We sell backyard bird feeding supplies including seed, feeders, and bird baths.
Hi Paula, we do not sell any birds.
Hi Susan, you are not alone in this case. We have been finding that the customers closer to Portland and the city area are reporting good activity. People in South Portland, Portland, Westbrook, and similar areas, etc. Those of us on the outskirts in wooded areas don't have as many, due to the natural food sources still plentiful. We think this will change with a cold snap of weather. Let us know when your bird activity increases, we would appreciate it!
Yes. It is part of our advanced pole system setup it makes it very easy to attach a nest box. The bottom part that goes into the ground has what they call a corkscrew base and you can simply drill it down into the ground. Then a nest box flange gets screwed to the nest box and you simply attach it to the pole. If you call us later, we can check the current stock for you and hold whatever you need.
If you are using Straight safflower, you can put it in a number of different feeders. A tube feeder would work, as would an open tray feeder like our Dinner Bell, which would easily accommodate Cardinals.
