Love our Bird Buddy. It’s so cool to see them up close and personal and learning about the birds from all the information that is provided in an artsy cool way.. I’ve already bought one for my niece for her to share with her granddaughters and teach them about the different birds. Customer Service is also great and quick to respond.

This was a gift from our children because they know how much we enjoy sitting and watching the birds at our house. Well, this gives us a real front row seat to see the birds and watch them interact with each other. It’s just amazing you can hear them sing and call to their mates. The experience is awesome.

Love that I can see what birds are coming to my yard and feeders. Wish the videos weren’t so long, though. And you can see birds at the BirdBuddy sometimes, but it doesn’t capture them.

I received the Bird Buddy as a gift. The detail that pops from the Bird Buddy images is astounding. Birding was a minor hobby of mine but this thing has ratcheted it to a new level. Collecting bird species through the Bird Buddy is my new distraction.

I love my Bird Buddy! It’s great to see, hear, and identify birds up close, it’s like having your own nature channel! With the solar roof, it has been great and never needs charging either!

Love, love, love my Bird Buddy! My 4 year old grandson will stop anything he is doing to open a bird visit notification. He’s learning about sharing our yard, who visits us and taking turns opening the Bird Buddy post cards. Looking forward to the new products as well.

My kids gave this to me as a birthday present. It took a few months to arrive but it was well worth the wait! I absolutely love it. Everyone does! They are taking suggestions from everyone and making some great updates and tweaks. If you love birds you will love a Bird Buddy!

I purchased 2 bird buddy’s, 1 for myself and one for my 87 yo Mom. They both work fabulously. It is very easy to setup and use. My Mom and I live 2 hours apart and we share our feeders with each other in the app. It’s been a wonderful shared experience and brings my Mom lots of joy.

I love my bird Buddy so much I purchased a second one – I cannot wait until the hummingbird is available. I was so excited when I got my first visitor and not it’s my slow down and relax time to see who has come to visit. I’ve always thought that SC has some of the most interesting and beautiful birds and now I have proof. Our cardinals are wonderful.

I love my bird buddy. I feel I really get to see and know the birds that come to my feeder and I can improve how I feed them. It has really helped my identification skills as well. I do wish the plastic feed door in back was sturdier and easier to fill, but that does not stop me from giving a highly recommend for Bird Buddy.

Absolutely love my Bird Buddy. Super easy to install. Once I added the solar roof it stays charged and I only have to take it down to clean. The app is very easy to use and they are constantly improving it. It’s so much fun to see the birds in action!

The Bird Buddy has brought hours of enjoyment and entertainment to our family and friends. The photos we have received are excellent and the videos just a joy to watch. This bird feeder was my BEST present of Christmas 2022. Love and highly recommend it to all bird watchers / lovers.

Bird Buddy was a kickstarter I invested in 2 years ago. It took some time to roll it out. But when it finally came, I was able to put it together download the app and start using it in no time. I did however have a few glitches along the way but the customer service helped me out right away and I’ve been glitch free ever since. I absolutely love this thing.

While the wait was longer than expected for this Kickstarter that happened in the depths f covid, I absolutely love my Bird Buddy feeder. It arrived packaged well and has worked as expected since arrival. Any issues have been solved with the assistance of other Bird Buddy users and the company itself.

Frequently asked questions
After a lot of research and consultation, we’ve come to the conclusion that any attempt to prevent squirrels from visiting would be a futile task. Instead, we focused on making sure that the materials used will be able to withstand significant damage, which should prevent the squirrels from destroying the feeder itself. Right now our priorities lie in making sure that no harm could come to our feathered friends. We’ve shared some best humane practices to keep your squirrels away from your feeder here.

Depending on how many photos you take and how much you stream the video feed, the battery can last anywhere between 5 and 15 days.
