Wild Bird Habitat's new website will continue to address our customers needs whether you live in Nebraska or beyond. We will expend our online products of proven USA made products. We will add articles and content for bird enthusiats, backyard bird feeding, birding events, birding news and more.

  • Our Internet customers will still receive free shipping on procuct orders of $125.00 or more.

  • No Free Shipping on Wild Bird Feed: All our wild bird feeds are excluded from our online free shipping of $125 or more. This is because we offer the same price of wild bird feeds to our Internet customers as we do our in-store customers. We won't charge high prices for our wild bird feed then offer free shipping as many online retailers do.

  • All wild bird feed orders placed on our website at wildbirdhabitatstore.com or shopwildbirdfeed.com are shipped via UPS Ground unless you are a resident who wishes to pick your wild bird feed order up locally at our south Lincoln, NE location in the Alamo Plaza at 56th & Hwy 2

We hope you enjoy our new website. Let us know if you have any questions or problems about an order. We are here to help. Our hop is to help make your backyard birding experience a lifelong activity. Good birding to all! Dave

  • Goldfinches will be flocking to thistle feeders & males will show their breeding plumage.

OUR MOST POPULAR HOPPER & PLATFORM BIRD FEEDERS

Environmentally
Friendly Bird Feeders
Although the durability and natural look of cedar bird feeders continue to be preferred, the new line of feeders made from 100% post consumer recycled plastic is gaining in popularity. Many of these bird feeders have a lifetime warranty against fading, pealing, cracking, and chipping. They clean up like brand new, even after years of use. And speak of easy cleaning, many of the cedar and recycled plastic feeders we stock have removable perforated steel bottoms. This also allows moisture to pass through and the seed to remain dry.
 
Made in the USA
SELECTING A NEW BIRD FEEDER
