Bird Watcher

Really a cute animal lovers store. They have so much stuff to make the outside of your house look adorable. They also have a great section with stuff that’s on sale. If you are in the area must stop by the staff is all super friendly.

I really liked the store, would have liked larger pictures to put on my wall but it was nice. Had to leave so I wouldn’t spend so much as it did have alot of nice things in there to buy I bought some humming bird coasters. The people were really nice to deal with.

We have shopped at the store several times. We love the store and they do have some hard to find items and their prices are good for some of the very cute lawn art. They have beautiful flags and bird feeders. Give them a chance, you will love the store.

I spotted this store late on a Sunday evening after having dinner across the street but they were already closed so I had to come back the next day.
I was so excited to see so many beautiful things, however the older woman behind the counter was a total bitch!
My mom and I said hello to her upon entering, our greetings were ignored :/​
My niece asked her a question and the woman looked at her, then looked away completely ignoring her.
I will never ever come back into this store, the customer service sucked balls!

A few years ago after a freak accident in which my terrier fatally wounded my 10-​year-​old parakeet named Brazil, I was devastated. After burying the poor little bird at a beautiful canyon (condo’s just don’t have proper burial places for bird funerals), the hubby and I drove out to Julian for some fresh air and to get away from our sad, empty birdcage and crazed dog. So as we walked along in Julian we came across The Birdwatcher. We both froze at the front stoop. Do we go in? Do we look around? Our hearts were still suffering and here we are standing in front of a store with bird paraphernalia everywhere. So after a deep breath and reaching out to hold each other’s hand we decided to walk in.
The Birdwatcher is a beautiful country store with all kinds of bird knick-​nacks, outdoor garden accessories, bird feeders, clothes, jewelry, toys for kids and home décor. In a town known for expensive giftware, The Birdwatcher has exceptionally low prices and very friendly shop attendants. We found a lovely sign that says «Welcome Garden Friends» with two birds on it (one in blue just like Brazil) and decided to buy it as a memento to remember our lost avian family member.
Since that trip we’ve gone back to The Birdwatcher numerous times and have purchased all kinds of neat decorations, creative salt-​and-​pepper shakers (I collect them… hey everyone is allowed a little bit of weirdness!) and gifts. In October 2010 we picked up a really cool Thanksgiving decoration (with turkeys on it of course) and an art-​deco peacock salt-​and-​pepper shaker set, both items were barely over $ 20 total with tax.
While we can never have birds of our own in the house anymore because of our bird dog bandit, at least we have some nice décor items from The Birdwatcher. Not the same thing as Brazil of course, but not a heartbreaker either.
