I am back from BirdWatch America with lots of new ideas. Hopefully, you will see some positive additions to The Wild Bird soon.
There are a few new items I would like to highlight. First, we are expanding our optics section and will be stocking a wider selection of binoculars. We will carry glasses from Vortex, Stokes Birding Series and Audubon. All are very nice binoculars at unbelievable prices. You can pay a whole lot more for a pair of birding binos but I don't think you'll get better value. Not only are these glasses priced well but they are backed with a fantastic warranty. You really can't do any better without spending a lot more money.
We are also going to stock live mealworms on a trial basis. Feeding mealworms to birds is very popular in other parts of the country but less so here in the west. These guys are packed in a can with worm food and will last for days. They will live longer if kept in a cool environment. Come in and give them a try. We will have special pricing on the first shipment of cans.
Finally, I am bringing in a new product to help with the fight against bears, raccoons and deer. The Nite Guard is a solar powered device designed to keep pest animals away from your feeders or out of the yard entirely. We are going to give these a trial run and will report back with our findings. One thing I will say; the Nite Guard people are so confident in their product that they have a 60 day money back guarantee.
I will write more about these products as they arrive and I start getting customer feedback. Stay tuned!
