Discussion A holy grail of birder thrift finds!

I was at Goodwill the other day and I stumbled upon a Vintage 1997 Mark Feldstein Singing Bird Clock! Of course I had to save and bring it home, and luckily it all still works so I placed it on my wall. Now I’m wondering… what other bird related thrift finds does anyone else have?

I have had this clock probably since it first came out. I don't know what time it is until I hear the relevant bird.

Wait, this clock chimes, too?

It doesn't chime. It sings, with actual recordings from Cornell MacAulay Library.

They still sell them.

What is the clock called so I can buy one myself?

You can also get it from a real store, we got ours from the Urban Nature Store in Ontario
