This is truly your one-stop-shop for all things bird related. If you are looking for optics, they have binoculars, spotting scopes and all sorts of camera related devices. Their selection of seed and suet is unrivalled in the area. A multitude of feeders are available, to dispense whatever protein you decide upon. Books and CDs on all subjects natural world will help you decide just exactly what you are watching or feeding. Janet, Jerry and the rest of the staff, are well-versed in their entire inventory. Make this a must-stop in your next road trip!

Friendly and knowledgeable staff! We came in to buy harnesses for our binoculars, and not only did they offer to assemble it onto the binoculars for us, they also demonstrated on how to wear it and to adjust for the best fit! Best service ever!

Absolutely SUPER! Great selection, saved me getting emergency gifts on several occasions. Wide variety of feeders and houses from affordable to works of art I wish I could afford (but they are worth it). People often complain about the seed prices but the seed is CLEAN (no bugs worms or moths) and good quality. Friendly staff and the owner is Ultra Knowledgeable about things of the Birdy variety. I am a repeat customer and gosh-darned pleased at that!

Expert, friendly owners who do not push sales, but are more than happy to assist and answer questions. The selection of items for sale include bird-themed gifts like trinkets and cards, bird books, several different styles of hummingbird feeders, bird houses tiny to huge, professional level telescopes, and everything inbetween.The perfect place for bird watchers casual to pro, or for finding gifts for anyone of any age who loves birds.

I have been doing business with Jerry for around ten years. He is an outstanding birder and runs a great store. Anything to do with birding you will find at the Audubon Shop. I particularly like his premium seed mix. Mostly sunflower hearts with around 10-20% sunflower seeds in the shell. If you use this mix you wont have to reseed your lawn in the spring dues to the huge pile of sunflower seed shells killing your lawn!

Oh my goodness i love this store. You first walk in to a bird sanctuary where all the bird feeders are set up so you get glimoses of wild birds feeding during the day. I saw morning doves black capped chickadees. Inside is state of the art binoculars, cute bird nic-nacks, all your bird loving needs.

We stopped into the Audobon Shop yesterday and what a wonderful experience! We traveled from Springfield after a snowstorm to get there and I am so glad we did! The owner was there and he was such a wealth of information! He spent about an hour assisting me with all the right things I would need to attract certain birds in my yard, and all the dos and donts of becoming a bird watcher. I highly recommend a visit to this unique shop for all your birding needs! Christina M.
