While looking for birds in Dripping Springs, Texas (yes, that’s a real place), Kyle and his daughter took a break from bird watching to check out the eclipse. (Cutest eclipse photo ever.) I love the shirt, but I wish I had a bite of that cookie.

Last year, for the first time in forever, and maybe longer, a pair of Bald Eagles successfully raised a family on the Outer Cape. Now, according to Ken and his amazing photos, the eagles are back on the same nest and are working on a brand new family. Yay! This is so...

Over the last 35 years one our most popular items has been Catherine Clark’s hand-painted Christmas ornaments. Then a few years ago she stopped painting and everyone was sad. Well, the sadness has ended because Catherine is once again painting bird ornaments, and we...

We finally got the item everyone has been waiting years for. The official BWGS Yo-yo (Male birdwatcher on one side, female on the other) is here and and bringing back the joy you haven't had since elementary school. Get ready to walk the dog and go around the world...

The other night the BWGS crew invaded the Barley Neck Inn for our 2023 Christmas party. The Inn folks, especially our waitress Shay, were super great (although the chef needs to add more vegetarian options). At the end of the evening Karen read the kids’ winter...

For the last four decades we have sponsored a team (The Bird Watcher’s) in the Cape Cod Senior Softball League. And, because we sponsor the team, I felt certain they would let me play with them. However, when asked them about joining, they told me I was too old. Maybe...

In case you missed it, Up-up, Wild Care’s screech-owl paid us a visit today. The small but serious bird posed for photos and selfies, and even answered a few questions. Up-up had such a good time it promised to come see us again. We’ll post the details of its next...

This Saturday, November 25th, "Up-Up," the Eastern Screech-Owl and a crew from Wild Care will be visiting us from 10:00-12:00. Although Up-Up isn’t scheduled to arrive until 11:00. Apparently, Up-Up needs extra beauty sleep.

With nearly 600 hats filled, our annual Free Hatful of Potatoes Day was once again a big hit, especially with this particular group. I’m not sure exactly who they are, but they win the award for having the best smiles of the day.

We just received two tons of fresh Massachusetts grown potatoes, for our annual Free Hat Full of Potatoes Day. Stop by this Saturday, Nov. 18th, anytime between 9:17-5:11 and we’ll fill your hat with delicious potatoes. Just don’t forget your hat...or you’ll go...

In the forty years we have been in business we have seen a lot of folks come and go. Some have simply moved away, while others have ultimately left this world entirely. It’s something we have come to expect…but we didn’t expect to lose one of our own. Long before he...

Ned and Laura, from Springfield, VA have just sent us this colorful photo of Ned sporting a 2019 BWGS shirt, from the Waipo'o Falls-Waimea Canyon Trail, Kōkeʻe State Park, Kauai, Hawaii. (Ned is also wearing a Boston Red Sox hat. Clearly he is having a much better...
