My husband and I got a Bird Buddy for Christmas from our kids, and when we opened it, I’ll be honest, I thought, oh great, another gadget I’ll have to get my son to set up. And it turns out that yes, I did. LOL. The WiFi kept having weird issues and wouldn’t connect at first, so it took even my tech savvy son a few hours to figure it out. But now that it works, both me and my hubby are obsessed. Fully invested. Emotionally attached. Did not see this coming!! 🤣 We love spending a lot of time in the backyard in general. We do gardening together, and recently drink coffee there and debate whether we actually need to sow that many tomatoes for 2025 LOL, and now we also keep researching how to get more birds to visit. We’re looking into getting some more accessories later this year like the bigger landing perch, and maybe the water fountain one, so that we get some bigger birds to visit too. The squirrels haven’t found us yet, but the food still cannot be filled up fast enough, so I kinda wish the seed holder was bigger. But it’s easy to use at least, and SO MUCH FUN!! Our grandkids are really into it too, and want us to buy the premium tier in the app so they can spy on the birds and give them names from their phone. 🤣 We’ll see! Turning out to be one of our favorite gifts ever otherwise and I will be recommending it to my friends (or their kids LOL, since it’s so much better to get it as a gift 😉). If you’re wanting one, though, definitely get it!!
