For someone who loves birds, there's no better (or more relaxing) pastime than just watching their winged friends fly around. They'll spend hours observing them in a park or their backyards. But besides for maybe a good pair of binoculars, it seems the sport doesn't really require all that much — so what do you get for a birder or someone who just loves birds as a memorable gift?

From cool gadgets to help make their birdwatching experience better to books filled with information they don't know yet, you'll find the best gifts for bird lovers below. When using this guide, think about what kind of birds they like the most — hummingbirds, for instance — how they like to express their interest — through cute decor or photographing them — and what they actually need to make their passion more fun or enjoyable.

Some of these ideas will also make great presents for say, people who like to garden, or just your mom or grandma who prefers spending times outdoors.
