Their store windows were the most fun you could have at lunchtime. Now that 33rd and Bird have moved upstate, you have to go a little further, but it's still worth it. There are few shops in the greater NYC area that know as much about birds as these folks do.
33rd and Bird's new shop is much bigger. They sell hand-fed baby birds, bird food, products and a large selection of cages, and they do grooming and boarding as well.
While you may be a small bird lover, like ourselves, the parrots are still the main draw!

I was wondering where they had gone. When my parents were in town, I said, oh you must see this store, when we came off the 33rd Street subway station, but the store was no longer there. Always found it fun to wander in from time to time.
Whoa! This is about half a mile away from me, and I've been unaware!
There is a nice bird store on Main St. in Old Saybrook, CT too. It's not exactly the greater NYC area but if you happen to be nearby it is worth a visit. Their website (http://www.featherlustfarm.com/) is a bit dodgy but the store is fun because some of the birds aren't in cages, they are sitting on perches. They have many more types of birds than any other bird store I've ever been in but they have basic budgies and parrots and etc. too.
i'm going to the website now! hopefully they sell online.
Us bird nerds need a great place to buy bird stuff.
thanks
I miss those windows! I used to wander down there at lunch. Never failed to brighten my day.
Awwwwwwesome! Now I know where to go if I ever head up in that direction with my fellas!
We have several out here in California, all of which have birds available for sale and adoption, and everything that every bird-parent should have, including boarding. My favorite place so far has been Omars out in the Los Angeles/Brea/Lake Forest since they do have most of the birds out on open perches.
Don't get me wrong though, the other 3 places I know of are still amazing- It's always like heading to "Disneyland" for me lol
