  Bird watching has no limitations; male or female, young or old can enjoy our fair feathered friends. Whether it is a hobby or just for casual observation, bird watching is relaxing and can be enjoyed from our backyards or while hiking. The variety of gifts to choose from is huge, and the recipient is sure to be pleasantly pleased if you are thoughtful about what to give.
  
  

Outdoor Gifts

• Your gift can treat the birds to a heated bird bath that can be used all year and enjoy watching while they stop by for a drink. With so many styles available, it will be easy to find one suitable to fit any backyard landscape. Colorful bird-themed garden flags can be hung near the front door or in a flower garden and are a welcome sight even on gloomy days. You can watch the temperature rise or fall from a bird-design thermometer. You can choose from a range of houses or bird feeders. Birds are selective when it comes to housing, so find one appropriate for the birds you'll want to attract. You may even want to welcome guests with a bird doormat.
  
  

Indoor Gifts

• Bird lovers can keep track of the time on a clock with birds instead of numbers. You can give them decorative bird-themed plates to hang on the wall or display in a china cabinet. Music boxes add a special touch to a bedroom to hold keepsakes and also listen to a songbird sing. A kitchen area rug with cardinals, robins or yellow birds is a good way to start any morning for a bird lover.
  
  

Personal

• T-shirts and sweatshirts designed with a bird print are certain to delight any bird enthusiast. With so many prints to choose from, it may be difficult to pick only one. The lady on your list may appreciate matching earrings and a necklace. Bird watchers who enjoy getting out and seeking different species will enjoy binoculars. A book of birds and a journal will help keep track of the varieties and site locations. An Audubon magazine subscription will please any bird lover.
