Picking a gift for a bird watcher
Bird watchers are early people. They're up before the sun with a thermos, a pair of binoculars and a notebook that's half field notes, half life list, and they'll stand perfectly still in a cold marsh for an hour for one good look at a warbler. The gifts they keep fit that life: a hoodie for dawn walks in spring and fall, a tee for the weekend trip to the wildlife refuge, a mug that holds the coffee while they wait for the fog to lift. Most of them also keep a favorite, so the best personal touch is a species. Put Barred Owl, Osprey or Cedar Waxwing on the design, or add their name or a life-list count on the second line where a design has one. If you're buying for a club, the Team Shop prints one design with each member's name on it, and the kids' tees suit a young birder tagging along on the morning walk.
Bird Watcher gift questions
Can I put a specific bird species on a bird watcher shirt?
Yes. Type the species into the text box, such as Pileated Woodpecker or Snowy Owl, and the preview updates. It works best when you pick their actual favorite.
What's the difference between a bird watcher and a birder?
People use both words, and many serious hobbyists say birder. If they prefer it, type Birder instead of Bird Watcher in the text box and the design changes to match.
Can I add a life list number or a year?
Where a design has a second line, you can type a life-list count, a year or a place. Check the preview to make sure it fits nicely before you order.
What should I get for a bird watcher who already has all the gear?
Something to wear or use at home rather than in the field. A hoodie for cold mornings or a mug with their name tends to get more use than another gadget.
What sizes do the bird watcher shirts come in?
Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
How long does a bird watcher gift take to arrive?
Each order is printed after you place it, in 2 to 4 business days, then ships by ground in 3 to 5 business days. The product page shows the delivery window for today's orders.
What if the print has a mistake?
If we print something different from the preview you approved, or it arrives damaged, we reprint it free.

- A mug for the thermos-free momentsAn 11 oz mug with Bird Watcher and their name suits the kitchen window where the feeder hangs. Many bird watchers log the backyard visitors from right there.
- Matching tees for the Christmas Bird Count teamIf they join a group count or a club outing, use the Team Shop to print one design with each person's name. Everyone gets their own size.
- A kids tee for the junior birderA kids T-shirt with a young birder's name on it fits the grandchild who carries the second pair of binoculars. It makes the morning walk feel like a real team.
