Whether you’re looking to get someone a great gift or start a new hobby of your own, we can’t recommend the Bird Buddy enough. Our reviewer thoroughly enjoyed just about everything about it and now it’s on-sale for its lowest price ever during Amazon’s early Black Friday sale. This was our most popular product on Black Friday last year and we expect it will be similarly popular this year with its even lower price. They do tend to sell out, however, so grab one now if you want in. BIRD BUDDY® Original Solar Bird Feeder with Camera $199 (was $299) See It This bird feeder has a built-in wide angle camera that records photos and videos of feathered friends as they show up to feast. The camera sends images to the companion app, which uses AI to identify the birds and provide you with interesting and useful information about them. The pictures and videos are extremely cool and checking the app becomes almost addictive over time. This model has a built-in solar panel so it charges passively with daylight. That means fewer trips to take it down and charge it. It’s truly great and makes an incredible gift. Also be sure to check out our list of gifts for the home.
