🐦 Discover the Art of Nature at Wild Birds Unlimited!
🦉 Join Our COS Bird-Loving Tribe: Community and Nature Unite
Does the symphony of birdsong beckon you to bask in nature's simple pleasures? Wild Birds Unlimited transforms that call into a backyard reality. Lifelong customer-turned-co-owner Heather Weber-Langvardt has cultivated a thriving haven for birding enthusiasts and nature lovers alike at this 2023 WBFI Retailer of the Year.
Located at 2450 Montebello Square Dr, Wild Birds Unlimited is a community cornerstone brimming with local artistry and expert knowledge. Beyond stocking premium bird feeders and seed, the shop showcases intricate wood carvings, photography, and more to appreciate our local outdoors in novel ways.
A storefront accident in December when a car crashed into the front door led to an unexpected transformation - where temporary repairs were needed, a beautiful mural now adds to the shop's artistic charm while permanent repairs are underway.
Heather and co-owner Shelley Weber, her mother, have carried on the 30-year legacy of this store, with heartfelt dedication. While Shelley continues to juggle her career, Heather stands as the store’s soul, blending lifelong passion with proprietary insights. Her enthusiasm intertwines the store’s rich history with new offerings and community partnerships.
With events like live raptor meet-and-greets and lending libraries for avid explorers and International adventurers, Wild Birds Unlimited nurtures birds and neighbors alike. They've been recognized for their community spirit and educational outreach through partnerships with local nonprofits.
Heather wants to remind you that with spring migration approaching, now is the perfect time to prepare! Stock up on high-energy foods like suet and ensure fresh water sources are available to welcome these seasonal visitors.
So, if you seek to transform your yard into an birding sanctuary, or desire unique, Colorado-proud gifts, a visit here is a step into natural wonder. Visit, call (719) 596-1819 or explore their website to join the Wild Birds Unlimited family in appreciating the beauty around us. Let your heart take flight alongside their flock.
